Support the McFarland Bird Festival Team in the 2024 Great Wisconsin Birdathon!
Based on the smashing success of our McFarland Bird Festival Birdathons the last several years, we are back again in 2024 with another Birdathon!
Myself and fellow birdathoner Alex Arnold are conducting a Birdathon on Saturday May 4th, 2024 to raise funds for a PURPLE MARTIN HOUSE and interpretive signage.
We plan to purchase and install a second Purple Martin nesting house at the Lewis Park / Marsh Woods parks in McFarland. We also wish to create an interpretive sign(s) that can be used to educate visitors on Purple Martins.
Thank you for supporting us all these years and we are looking forward to finding between 80-100 species on May 4th!
Thank you in advance for your support!

Your Donation Makes a Difference For Birds
Donations made to the Great Wisconsin Birdathon support the Natural Resources Foundation of Wisconsin’s Bird Protection Fund, which has given out over $1.4 million towards Wisconsin’s highest priority bird conservation projects since its inception in 2009.
Whether it's creating Piping Plover habitat, rearing Whooping Crane chicks, spreading awareness about declining songbirds, supporting community initiatives for bird-friendly neighborhoods, engaging new and underrepresented voices in the birding community, building impactful collaborations to protect Wisconsin's Important Bird Areas, or protecting our neotropical migrants on their long migratory journeys to Central America... the Bird Protection Fund is there to help.
Your donations make this work possible. Thank you for supporting on-the-ground conservation and being there #ForTheBirds!
