WELLFLEET The Boston Marathon may be virtual this year but the Bird-a-Thon is live and happening in real time starting Friday.
Mass Audubon sponsors the competition each year, and this year s battle between 13 teams based around Audubon’s Sanctuary regions celebrates the 125th anniversary of the organization, which was founded in 1896 by cousins Harriett Hemenway and Minnie Hall.
The two Bostonians wanted to stop birds from being shot to feather fashionable hats. The first Sanctuary, Moose Hill in Sharon, was opened in 1916 and it’s still a powerhouse in the Bird-a-Thon competition.
Anyone can participate birders, nature lovers, families. But what’s a Bird-a-Thon?
