Birdathon

All Day

Start with an annual Spring Bird Count, add teams of birders searching for as many bird species as possible over a 24-hour period, fold in sponsors to support our efforts and you have Birdathon.  All proceeds from this fun fundraiser are used to support Audubon Sharon's bird-related activities such as bird rehabilitation, bird research and bird habitat enhancement.  To arrange to join a group of birders or to make a pledge, contact the Center.
