The rich biological diversity of Pine County and the surrounding area 
provide a bonanza of birding opportunities for experienced birders and 
those just getting started. The Audubon Center of the North Woods is 
located in a unique transition zone where the eastern deciduous forest 
meets the northern conifer forest, and where pockets of the western 
prairie can be found.The terrestrial diversity is matched by the aquatic 
plethora of rivers, lakes, bogs and marshes. This first-class weekend 
birding festival gives participants a chance to visit a wide variety of 
habitats that support myriad bird species.

With field trips led by seasoned guides, engaging on-site workshops, 
bird banding sessions, a live raptor presentation, renowned keynote 
speakers, delicious homemade meals and comfortable lodging, this 
festival is birding at its best. We invite you to join us for a fun and 
memorable weekend.

Lodging, meals, and all programming in the all-inclusive weekend fee.
