Team participating in Great Wisconsin Birdathon 2022

Takes place Apr 15 - Jun 15, 2022

Captained by Cayla Matte

Support our team in the Great Wisconsin Birdathon!

Birds need our help! At the Pheasant Branch Conservancy in Middleton, birdwatching abilities are just one of the many attractions that make our Conservancy a magical place to enjoy. It is our duty to manage the ecosystem to be as healthy at it can be so that we can continue to provide habitats and resources for bird populations.

The team will be partaking in the survey on May 19th, this Thursday! The corridor is flourishing with warblers and the prairie areas are also starting to come alive with the sweet songs of migrating species. Let's see how many species we can count that day!

Your support would mean a lot to our team. Birds have made an incredible difference in our lives and we want to protect them. Every dollar counts when it comes to helping our birds, so no donation is too small. Thank you for considering!

Thanks to Cayla for organizing the team - and thanks to everyone for their support! I'm a fledgling birder, and was amazed to identify 67 different birds from 33 species during Birdathon. Highlights for me were Carolina Wrens gathering nesting materials, several Indigo Buntings, and nesting Baltimore Orioles.
