Great Wisconsin Birdathon 2013
All areas of Wisconsin
The Great Wisconsin Birdathon is a joint effort of the Natural Resources Foundation of Wisconsin and the Wisconsin Bird Conservation Initiative. Help reach the 2013 Great Wisconsin Birdathon's goal of $40,000 to support these projects: Bird City Wisconsin, Wisconsin Stopover Initiative for Migratory Birds, Important Bird Areas, Citizen Science for Birds, Neotropical migrant wintering site: Costa Rica’s Osa Peninsula, Kirtland’s warbler monitoring and whooping crane reintroduction. A birdathon is forming a team and spending any portion of a 24-hour period in May observing birds and soliciting pledges for the total number of species seen. For the Great Wisconsin Birdathon, teams create their own pages on our the Birdathon website, and use those pages to collect online donations from donors using their credit cards.
