Bird Brains

Captain: Carlyn Kranking

Team: Carlyn Kranking, Maggie Holland

About this team:

Carlyn is an online science editor for Smithsonian magazine and has been birding since fall 2021. Maggie is a receptionist at Countryside Animal Clinic and has been birding since January 2022. Both are super excited for their first-ever birdathon! They'll be doing their Big Day on May 12-13 and hope to find at least 50 species. They want to raise money for conservation, take exciting photos of birds and appreciate the peak of spring migration! One bird they especially hope to see is a barred owl.

Thanks for supporting Bird Brains and ASNV! Birdathon is one of our biggest fundraising events of the year and helps us:

  • support citizen science and habitat conservation

  • support our efforts to promote native plants to help the birds.
