Thank you to everyone who made our 46th Annual Birdathon such a success!

We are so grateful to all who participated, supported, and cheered us on—your enthusiasm and dedication made this year truly special.

We can’t wait to share a full summary report in the coming weeks, highlighting our top teams, participant testimonials, and a deeper look at this year’s benchmarks —plus a complete species list.

In the meantime, we’re thrilled to share that we have raised more than $78,000 toward our $80,000 goal! We look forward to seeing that goal met, and possibly exceeded, once all final gifts are in.

Thank you again for being part of this incredible, community-driven fundraising effort supporting Nature Forward’s vital mission—we couldn’t do it without you!


Thank you to our 2026 Nature Forward Birdathon sponsors!

We appreciate your generosity and community leadership on behalf of our 40,000 members, supporters, visitors, and program participants.
