Great Wisconsin Birdathon

May 12th is International Migratory Bird Day, and here in Wisconsin many will be heading outdoors to see up to 350 different species of birds that spend time in our state.

This year the Wisconsin Bird Conservation Initiative is promoting the first ever Great Wisconsin Birdathon, a fund raiser to support state and local bird conservation programs.  During the month of May teams of 2 or more gather pledges then spend a day bird-watching and identifying bird species. This is the first year for this event, but the WBCI hopes to make it an annual fund raiser.
