How Many Species Will We Record?

From 5PM on Friday, May 21 through 5PM on Saturday, May 22, the Maria Mitchell Association invites birders of all ages, experienced and novice, near and far, to participate in our annual Bird-A-Thon. This year, the MMA is reimagining and expanding the effort to include birders all over the world as a Bird-Where-You-Are-A-Thon!

The goal of the Bird-Where-You-Are-A-Thon is to encourage participants to notice birds in their daily lives. To register as a birder for this event, please follow the link below and submit your form by Thursday, May 20 at 5PM. Following the event, the MMA will host a live Zoom session on Tuesday, May 25 at 7PM to share the results and official count of species seen.
