REPORT SUMMARY

The Great Wisconsin Birdathon Peddling Paddling Prius Pewees green birding team had some super birding experts and perfect weather Saturday May 7 for green birding in and near northside Madison in Dane County.  The team split up to cover several locations (some more than once) and in spite of being a slow day for bird activity the combined total was 93 species!  

This report and some pictures for your enjoyment are posted on the Great Wisconsin Birdathon Pewees team page and Madison FUN and Madison Bird City Facebook pages.  Please add your pics and comments and donate to the http://wibirdathon.org Peddling Paddling Prius Pewees team to help protect Wisconsin birds!
