From May 31st to June 5th, 2020, we celebrated the inaugural Black Birders Week.  It was a week-long online event celebrating Black nature enthusiasts to increase the visibility of Black birders.  

Tykee James, the government affairs coordinator with the National Audubon Society, is one of the co-organizers and joined us to talk about Black Birders Week and more!
