Wrens of Wisdom Prairie had a fabulous time birding last month!
We found 65 species of birds at Holy Wisdom. One of the highlights for the day was a Cape May Warbler, which is uncommon here. It was a great day for warblers overall, with nine different species observed in total. We were also happy to spot our resident family of Great Horned Owls, and had great looks at a male Indigo Bunting singing his merry heart out.
But perhaps best of all, we were delighted to have 42 people participate. Great things happen when we flock together in appreciation of birds.
Heartfelt thanks to all of you who contributed to Wrens of Wisdom Prairie!

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!
