Go Birding With Us!In celebration of bird migration and conservation, the Urban Ecology Center is hosting its 13th Annual Green Birding Challenge on Saturday, May 10, 2025!
________________________________________________________
Soaring Eagle Challenge: Starts at 6 AM; 5 hours of birding
Rockin' Robin Challenge: Starts at 8 AM; 3 hours of birding
^ $45 for adults; $25 for children with lunch and a t-shirt included! Engage in a little friendly competition to see which team can find the most bird species the morning of May 10. This challenge is unique in that all team-based counts are done without using any fossil fuels (no driving 100 miles to see a bonus bird). Register by April 20th to guarantee your t-shirt size!
Your team of birders (max of 4 people) will choose a challenge category (at the end of checkout):
The Big Sit (sitting): Find a location that you can walk or bike to and then sit in a comfy lawn chair with coffee and let the birds come to you. Picking the best location is the hardest part!
Birding By Foot (walking): Hike to and from Urban Ecology Center - Washington Park to build your list.
Bike to Birds (biking): Join the biking challenge and visit hot spots around the city to build your list.
**Each member of your team must register. It is easiest to register everyone in your team at once. Registration confirmations can be sent to multiple people.
