The Noel J. Cutright Bird Club invites new and veteran birders to spend the day searching for as many birds as possible. We’ll multiply those results (averaging about 100 species) by collecting donations to support bird related causes. If you want to join one of our birding teams\, show up by 6:30 a.m. in the visitor center parking lot where the property will be divvied up and teams will set off. Want to show up at 4 a.m. for owling and the dawn chorus? Email Carl Schwartz at cschwartz3@wi.rr.com to get details. \n\n\n\nThe Riveredge Bandathon will be held on the same day. It starts at the Riveredge west parking lot. Working out of Connie’s Classroom\, licensed Master Bander Jana Gedymin\, along with a team of skilled volunteers\, will be banding as many birds as possible from sunrise into the afternoon\, weather permitting . Last year\, 35 birds were banded representing 13 different species. Highlights included a Blackburnian Warbler in stunning spring plumage and a Baltimore Oriole that sang in-hand. Visitors will have the opportunity to observe songbird capture and banding techniques up close and learn more about the fascinating science behind bird banding. Feel free to stop by anytime —but remember\, “early birds get the worms!” If you have questions\, contact Jana Gedymin at jgedymin@riveredge.us. \n\n\n\nAlso: a special opportunity to observe hummingbird banding will be available at the Visitor Center from 8:00 am – 11:00 am! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nquestions?\n\n\n\nIf you have questions or need more information about the Birdathon & Bandathon\, please contact Jana Gedymin at jgedymin@riveredge.us. \n\n\n\n\nEmail Jana\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n\n  \n    \n\n    \n      \n        \n        Become a Member\n                  Take advantage of member benefits and discounts! \n                          Join Now\n              \n\n    \n      \n        \n        FREE All Terrain Wheelchair Available\n                  For all ages | No CostAction Trackchair® model ST \n                          Learn More or Reserve the Trackchair!\n              \n\n    \n      \n        \n        More Events\n                  Explore other upcoming events! \n                          Event Calendar
