It’s Global Big Day at Wye Marsh!
What is Global Big Day?
Global Big Day has become a May tradition for tens of thousands of eBirders: 24 hours to put your favorite park/county/state/province country/continent on the global birding stage. Global Big Day 2022 also falls on World Migratory Bid Day!
There are so many fascinating birds passing through Wye Marsh Area of Natural and Scientific Interest (ANSI) that staff and volunteers will be conducting a bird count all day long.
