CANNON BEACH — The North Oregon Coast Birdathon will take place from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Saturday, April 9. During the 12- hour period, teams and individu- als will scour the planet or their own back yards for as many spe- cies of birds as possible. A birdathon, similar to a walkathon, raises funds per bird species observed. Anyone can participate including expert bird- ers, casual birdwatchers, begin- ners, experts, kids and adults. The NOC Birdathon was originally created as part of the Twelve Days of Earth Day cel- ebration in Cannon Beach and now extends throughout the boundaries of Clatsop County. All donations from the event will go to the Wildlife Center of the North Coast to help rehabilitate birds and other wildlife. There are new prize catego- ries this year: Most birds species seen from private residences and yards, youngest birder, and the person who is the furthest away from Cannon Beach. Lists need to be returned by April 14 to be tallied. Prizes will be awarded at the Gaylord Nelson Awards and Potluck at 6 p.m. Friday, April 15 at the Chamber Community Hall located at 207 N. Spruce St. Participation can also be done through a donation to the birdathon. Go to www.coast- wildlife.org to donate online, or mail directly to WCNC PO Box 1232, Astoria, OR 97103.
