The Colorado Field Ornithologists board of directors yesterday set Saturday, March 20, 2023, as the date for next year's Colorado Birding Challenge. The birding challenge combines an opportunity for birders to have an exciting day birding during peak spring migration season with a chance to raise funds for an important bird conservation project. In 2021, the first year of the challenge, Colorado volunteers raised nearly $35,000 to support Bird Conservancy of the Rockies work on grassland bird conservation. This year, participants provided nearly $40,000 to support recovery of habitat for the threatened Gunnison Sage-Grouse.
The beneficiary of funds raised in 2023 will be selected in December and announced in January. CFO is currently inviting applicants for funding. The 2023 Birding Challenge Beneficiary Application can be found on the CFO web site cobirds.org.
