Backyard Bounty - Now you can Birdathon at Home!
Eastern Towhee, Calli Cook/Audubon Photography Awards
Compete from the comfort of home.
Not interested in driving all over town? Gather your team at your own home and enjoy a more relaxed approach to Birdathon!
You and your teammates will still count as many species as possible, but you can do it from your patio, deck, or backyard, garden party style!
This is a great way for families to participate too! Get the kids involved and you will be amazed at what they discover right at home.
