The 2025 Colorado Birding Challenge will take place on September 6! Registration for teams will open in July but it's not too soon to start planning! Here are a few things you can do now:
Form your team. A team must have at least two members per the ABA Big Day rules. While there is no limit to team size, remember that all team members must see/hear 95% of all species on your official list, so the more people you add, the more, um, challenging that becomes.

Select the category you want to compete in. The main competitive category is simply called The Challenge, but we also have a separate category for teams made up of individuals 25 and under, and a green category for those who want to travel without the aid of motorized vehicles. There is a fourth option that is not competitive, Bird Your Own Way, that lets you participate however you want!
Decide which county you want to bird in. There are 64 counties in Colorado to choose from. The COBC can be an opportunity to explore someplace new!
Choose your team's name! This is part of the fun!
New for 2025, Front Range Birding and Optics has agreed to sponsor the COBC. They will provide prizes to the winning teams in each of the three competitive categories, so there's even more reason to start planning for this year's Colorado Birding Challenge!
