Alumni

Bring your best bird calls and stroll along with fellow Bates alumni and current families in the greater Philadelphia area for a morning of birdwatching at John Heinz National Wildlife Refuge at Tinicum. Whether you’re a seasoned birder, enjoy fluttering through nature, or you’re just curious, all are welcome to take part in this fun and relaxed event.

We’ll enjoy springtime wildlife, connect with nature, and support global conservation efforts!

Global Big Day is an annual celebration of birds all around you that takes place on Saturday, May 9th. It’s a day for birders – of all experience levels – to contribute to bird research data across the globe. Learn more about Global Big Day and how you can participate.
