The Great Wisconsin Birdathon at Holy Wisdom Monastery – May 9, 2026

Thank you for joining us at the Great Wisconsin Birdathon at Holy Wisdom Monastery on May 9, 2026

The Great Wisconsin Birdathon is Wisconsin’s largest fundraiser for bird conservation. Each year bird enthusiasts from across the state form teams with the goal of finding as many unique bird species as possible while raising important funds for bird conservation.

Support bird conservation

It’s not too late to support Wrens of Wisdom Prairie by making a financial contribution.

All of the dollars raised will directly support bird conservation. Half of the funds raised will stay at Holy Wisdom Monastery and be used to create and maintain bird habitat here, with the remaining funds going to the Natural Resources Foundation.
