Similar to a walkathon, Birdathon is Audubon's largest annual
fund raising event and the world's biggest bird-watching
competition! Every year, thousands of people nationwide join in to count birds, have fun,
and raise vital funds for Audubon’s mission of environmental conservation, education, and advocacy. People count
birds and collect pledges from sponsors based on the number of species they see in one day.
Birdathon is the way LHAS makes the money needed to place Audubon Adventures in some nearby 4th
grades 5 times a school year. Audubon Adventures is a newspaper that educates
kids about birds, wildlife, and habitat.
