Let’s celebrate ICF’s 40th anniversary in true birder fashion with our 25th annual Bird-a-thon! Grab your gear, family, and friends and have fun searching for those elusive birds you seem to hear but never see. Choose one 24-hour period between April 1st and June 30th to bird for as long or as short as you wish. Our most dedicated bird watchers and fund raisers will be eligible to win prizes generously donated by Eagle Optics.

If you’re looking for alternate ways to participate, please consider making a flat rate gift or a per-species gift pledge to the “Craniacs” team led by ICF’s Co-founder, George Archibald (on average, 150 species are identified). To make a gift to the Bird-a-thon today, please use our online donation form or make check payable to International Crane Foundation with a memo of 2013 Bird-a-thon.
