Ben Hughes, Rose Guerin, Delanie Pickering, and other Island musicians will play an all-ages Zoom concert (meeting ID 744 741 3580) for Mass Audubon Felix Neck on May 9 from 8 p.m. to 10 p.m., according to an announcement from the wildlife sanctuary.
Co-sponsored by the Ritz, the live event supports Mass Audubon's biggest single fundraiser, the annual Bird-a-thon, which takes place the following weekend with a new twist.
For 24 hours beginning Friday, May 15, the Bird-a-thon challenges bird watchers to go carbon-free as they observe and identify as many species as they can. "Participants can bird from home—a window, backyard, or go to a green space within short walking or biking distance from home," the announcement reads, in part. Birders also are asked to go solo or with household members to maintain social distancing.
To participate, donate and learn more about the Bird-a-thon, visit massaudubon.org/birdathon and click on Felix Neck to keep your donations local, or contact Island team captain Liz Cosgrove at 508-627-4850.
