Thank you for visiting my Bird-a-thon page!

Beloved of children, bards and spring,

O birds, your perfect virtues bring.

Your song, your forms, your rhythmic flight,

Your manners for the heart's delight.

                   -- Ralph Waldo Emerson, “May-Day”​

 Like Emerson, I delight in the songs, flight, and beauty of birds.  They provide me with such pleasure, hope, and inspiration.  In return, I provide plenty of bird seed, suet, a heated bird bath, and I participate in Bird-a-thon.  Through this annual birding competition, I raise money in support of Mass Audubon’s important mission of protecting birds and other wildlife and the environment we share with them.

The money we raise though Bird-a-thon will protect the peace and beauty of our wildlife sanctuaries, support high quality educational programming for all ages, and fund conservation projects critical to the protection of our local wildlife.  Your contribution makes this work possible! 

Thanks in advance for your support!
