The BirdAThon is held every year, usually during the month of May. Auduboners ask friends and relatives to be sponsors.
Sponsors pledge a certain amount per bird or a single amount for the entire birding day.
Following the BirdAThon, sponsors receive a report of what birds they saw on their BirdAThon Day. It is also important as it is an event that helps raise funds for chapters to run their local activities and projects. For information on the National Audubon BirdAThon program, click Here .
