If you are into birding and conservation or both, you may be interested in forming a team and competing in The Green Big Day, kicking off April 23 and ending May 8, 2011! Check out http://www.greenbigday.org/
to sign up (free) or search green big day on Facebook. You don't need to be a super birder to do this, and a
bunch of Green Big Day county records are just waiting to be set. Just form a small team of 2 or more, sign up at the website, go birding for a 24 hour period without using any gasoline (hiking, biking, kayaking,
etc.), and submit your results by May 15.
This event is not a fundraiser per se, but participants can raise money on their own (bird-a-thon style) for their favorite non-profits. I encourage you to pass the word so we can see green big days happening all over the country this spring!
I would appreciate your feedback, and feel free to contact me personally if you have questions or want to serve on the planning committee. Take care and good birding!
