Upcoming Events

Register now for an upcoming TKC event, webinar, or program. You do not need to be a TKC member to participate in any of our events, although if you enjoy participating in them, we highly encourage that you become one and support our conservation work!

October Big Day

In the birding community, a "big day" is an attempt to see as many bird species as you can within a single 24 hour period. Every year in October, the Cornell Lab of Ornithology hosts October Big Day, where they encourage birders across the world to use eBird and see how many species can be found in a single day. This year, The Kensington Conservancy has decided to align our annual birding fundraising event with October Big Day.

There are three ways that you can participate with The Kensington Conservancy for this event:

Go Birding - either as an individual or as a team, go out birding for the day on October 14th and see how many species you can find. Participation is by donation.

Make a Pledge - you can make a pledge to donate a certain amount for every species of bird that the TKC Thrashers team records on October 14th.

Make a Donation - if you would rather make a one-time donation rather than a pledge per species in support of October Big Day, that is fine too!

All proceeds will support The Kensington Conservancy's bluebird box trail, winter bird feeders, and our general conservation work within the St. Joseph Channel area.
