Calling all Birders!

The 2020 ASNV Birdathon Competition is POSTPONED.

Spring is on its way, and so is Birdathon! It’s time to organize your teams and sign up for our annual spring migration FUNdraising event. All birding levels are welcome! 

The concept is simple:  Participants form teams of two to five members, each team secures pledges and donations, then during any 24-hour period between April 17 and May 17 the teams search Northern Virginia to see how many bird species they can identify. 

Get your teams READY!

  • Register your team here. Make sure you have a team or mascot photo ready to email once you complete the registration form.

  • Once you register your team, we’ll create a team page for you where you can ask your friends, family and social media pals to support your efforts.

  • Check out our guidelines. ( We made some changes this year)

  • Watch our website and newsletter for updates and tips on how to complete a successful Birdathon.

Go out and have a great day birding! And THANK YOU for supporting Audubon Society of Northern Virginia’s efforts to conserve and restore natural ecosystems, focusing on birds and other wildlife, and their habitats.

Report your Birdathon sightings by May 30 on eBird and send your list to info@audubonva.org. Ask your supporters to visit your team page and make their donations by June 1.

Winners will be announced at our Annual Meeting on June 7!
