The Baillie Birdathon is the oldest sponsored bird count in North
America. It was established in 1976 as a fundraiser to support the
research and conservation of wild birds. Funds raised by
participants benefit not only the work of Bird Studies Canada, but
also designated bird observatories in the Canadian Migration
Monitoring Network, the James L. Baillie Memorial Fund, which
provides research grants for bird studies across Canada, and
participating conservation and naturalist clubs. Help support the
birds by sponsoring a participant or, sign up to participate
yourself.
