Black Swamp Bird Observatory Presents...
The Ohio Young Birders Club Big Day Event

Saturday, October 10, 2020

The OYBC Big Day was a united effort to celebrate birding from our local regions, tallying as many species as possible. We may not be able to be together, but we can still go birding alongside each other, virtually!

What's a "Big Day"?
During a BIG DAY, participants visit multiple locations to maximize the number of species that can be seen in a single calendar day. Like a walkathon, people can donate to the OYBC by pledging an amount for every species seen during the event. Everyone is welcome to join us and help count birds! 

Show Your Support For Nature Education
100% of the proceeds will help educate young people about birds, the joy of birding, and the importance of being good stewards of natural resources! 

Contributions Are Tax-Deductible
BSBO is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, so your donations are tax-deductible.
