JANUARY 100 IN 48 HOURS (IN OHIO!)

Join the Greater Akron Audubon Society for an extraordinary 48-hour birdwatching adventure led by passionate birder Tyler McClain. This unique challenge invites participants to explore Ohio's diverse avian habitats and ecosystems, aiming to spot as many different species of birds as possible within a two-day timeframe.
McClain will guide enthusiasts through various locations across the state, from serene wetlands teeming with waterfowl to dense woodlands where songbirds thrive. The event promises an immersive experience for both novice birdwatchers eager to learn and seasoned observers looking to add new species to their life lists. Participants can expect a mix of early morning excursions in search of dawn chorus birds and evening outings focused on nocturnal species.
The journey will highlight the rich biodiversity found throughout Ohio, offering insights into conservation efforts and the importance of preserving natural habitats for these feathered creatures. With opportunities to witness rare sightings and learn about bird behavior from an experienced guide, this event is a must-attend for anyone interested in ornithology or simply looking to connect with nature.
Participants are encouraged to bring their binoculars, cameras, field guides, and any other equipment necessary for comfortable outdoor exploration over the two-day period. The Greater Akron Audubon Society will provide guidance on optimal viewing spots but emphasizes that each participant's contribution can help in documenting a wide variety of bird species across multiple environments.
This event is open to all members of the public who share an interest in birds and nature conservation, making it accessible for anyone willing to embark on this exciting journey.
