The $87,000 that you raised in this year's Great Wisconsin Birdathon brought
the total for the Natural Resources Foundation's Bird Protection Fund to over
ONE MILLION DOLLARS raised since the fund's beginning in 2009. The Bird
Protection Fund's sources are grants and direct contributions, fundraising
field trips, and, since 2012, the Great Wisconsin Birdathon. You can read the
press release at

The 2018 Birdathon report is now online and you can view it by going to
WIBirdathon.org, where you can also read about the bird conservation and
research projects that will be supported in 2019.
Thanks again to everyone who has supported this program--birders and donors,
field trip leaders and guests. You've made a huge difference for birds in
Wisconsin, and beyond. We hope you'll join the Birdathon in 2019.
Best of birds to everyone, and thanks to the admins for allowing Birdathon
posts!
