App Description

The official Biggest Week in American Birding Festival App by BirdsEye brings you all the power of the BirdsEye Birding Finding apps, and the convenience of quick access to the festival website, events and news.

Organized and hosted by Black Swamp Bird Observatory, The “Biggest Week" is a 10-day festival from May 6-15 featuring some of the best birding North America has to offer. If you are anywhere else in the world in mid-May, you are in the wrong place. Think about it: A 10-day birding event featuring workshops, guided birding activities, half-day birding bus tours, keynote speakers, and more. Among the myriad of events offered during the festival are workshops, Woodcock Extravaganzas to observe the extraordinary displays of these woodland shorebirds, daily walks at the world famous Magee Marsh boardwalk and other area birding hotspots, evening keynote presentations, birding by ear workshops, and presentations on world birding. On top of all of that, birding guru Kenn Kaufman will be teaching several bird identification classes!
