The Great Wisconsin Birdathon is Wisconsin’s largest fundraiser for bird conservation. Each year bird enthusiasts from across the state form teams with the goal of finding as many unique bird species as possible while raising important funds for bird conservation. Holy Wisdom Monastery is participating in this event for the sixth time this year! We hope you’ll support our team ‘Wrens of Wisdom Prairie’ in our efforts to find as many bird species as possible on our property on May 9th.There are several ways to participate:
Join us for a birding tour or ‘sit’
We are offering four guided walking tours and one session of ‘sit spot birding’ which is accessible for those who don’t wish to walk. Group size for each session will be limited to 10 participants. Birders of all ages and experience levels are welcome.
Come birding on your own
We invite you to come explore the monastery property Saturday, May 9th on your own, and keep track of the birds you see and hear. Submit your list of species to Amy Alstad [email protected] or 608-836-1631, x123.
Support Friends of Wisdom Prairie by making a financial contribution
All of the dollars raised will directly support bird conservation. Half of the funds raised will stay at Holy Wisdom Monastery and be used to create and maintain excellent bird habitat here, with the remaining funds going to the Natural Resources Foundation.
Donation information from the Natural Resources Foundation coming soon.
