Bird of Directors

The Bird of Directors had a lovely day of birding and a successful fundraising drive this Birdathon 2024 season. Thanks to those who participated in and supported this event, we raised more than $5,200, and achieved over 87% of our $6,000 goal!

Paul scoured Seward Park on Friday while Jim checked out Fox Island on Saturday. Anthony, Megan A., Nathan, Robert, and Sharon explored Lincoln Park on Saturday morning. Around noon, we crossed paths with Virb who spent the morning birding along the Duwamish River. (As a bonus, she spotted 4 orcas!)

The Saturday birders collectively saw 57 species (list below). Scroll through this page to check out the team's updates.

We're really grateful for your support of Birds Connect Seattle during this annual celebration of birds and nature. And kudos to our Bird of Directors Team!
