Anywhere in the world!
Join us for the 47th Annual Rich Stallcup Bird-A-Thon: September 15 – October 15, 2025
Be part of a month of birding, community, and conservation. Whether you’re spotting birds or supporting a team, the Bird-A-Thon is open to all ages and skill levels.
Pick any day between September 15 and October 15 to identify as many bird species as you can in a 24-hour period—on your own or with a team.
Take part in fun challenges, compete for prizes, and connect with others at in-person and virtual events. Please visit our Events page for details.
It’s easy to get started! Visit pointblue.org/birdathon to learn more and set up a personal or team fundraising page, or make a donation to help us meet our fundraising goal.
As a participant in the country’s longest-running Bird-A-Thon, you’ll be supporting Point Blue’s work since our founding in 1965 to conserve birds, other wildlife, and ecosystems through science, partnership, and outreach.
About this year’s mascot and artist:
For 2025, the Bird-A-Thon mascot is the Bewick’s Wren—first studied at our Palomarin Field Station in 1979 and now a symbol of conservation success after rebounding from past declines. Its quirky nesting habits and songs make it a standout choice. This year’s mascot art comes from Christina Burnham, a rising conservation scientist with Point Blue’s Antarctica program—and a talented artist and designer. Follow her @christinamaddy.
