WCAS hosts challenges, contests, and quizzes to enliven community and fundraise for conservation. Everyone is invited to participate!
  • ​WCAS Bird-of-the-Month Fundraiser and Photo Contest August 17-31, 2020 Be a part of our Bird-of-the-Month Fundraiser and Photo Contest community to help raise awareness of bird species through conservation education, fundraising success, and photography excellence.  ​​
  • Dead Tree Birding Challenge September 11-14, 2020 The Dead Tree Challenge is a fun, challenging bird identification event hosted by WCAS! The challenge is also a fundraising campaign to help get the word out about the importance of birds in our neighborhoods, cities, and urban areas. Ticket donations fundraise to aid the continuation of chapter conservation services to Cleveland area counties.
  • ​Fall Warbler Challenge September 1-October 31, 2020 Forget spring (for now) and look forward to fall and the warblers that pass through at this time of year. “Ugh, those confusing fall warblers” … nope, not really. Many warblers, especially the males, have similar patterns to their spring plumage. ​​
  • MAKE A MASK - BECOME A BIRD CONTEST! Sunday, October 18 through Saturday, November 14, 2020. Get out your construction paper and glitter, felt and glue ...  and get creative, just in time for the Halloween season. Since we must wear masks while out, why not make them FUN! Western Cuyahoga Audubon is having a BIRD MASK CONTEST! ​
  • Fledgling Birding Challenge Friday, November 27, 2020 Enter the WCAS Fundraiser and Fledgling Birding Challenge! A single-day birding event the day after the US Thanksgiving holiday. Join us to spot easy and more difficult birds to identify and fundraise to support vital chapter conservation education activities.​
