A birdathon, similar to a

ners, experts, kids and adults.

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.
