The Habitat at Home Ornithological Assessors (HOAs) consists of Tucson Audubon staffers Kari Hackney, Kim Matsushino, Olya Weekley, Cally Wilken, and members of the Habitat at Home community willing to let us bird their properties.
Habitat at Home's mission is to protect and conserve birds by creating and enhancing habitat in urban areas. Birdathon, for us, is the perfect opportunity to observe Habitat at Home's successes, monitor specific plant/bird relationships, and raise money for Tucson Audubon programs like Habitat at Home.
We will be traveling around southeast Arizona on May 4th, visiting Habitat at Home members' yards, and counting all the birds that come our way!
With your support, you are supporting native plants, birds, pollinators, beneficial wildlife, and helping us create safe urban habitat.
Thank you!

Birds have a unique, special, and different meaning to each of us. So, too, is each of our connection with Tucson Audubon Society personal and distinct. During Birdathon, we combine the love of bird watching during spring migration with support for bird conservation.
Birdathoners are birders and social fundraisers, joining together to make a difference for the birds and habitats of Southeast Arizona. Birdathoners continue a tradition that has held strong for over 30 years!
Each Birdathoner's personal network of supporters is what helps makes Birdathon possible.
