About this event

The Great Adirondack Birding Celebration (GABC) returns this coming May 31-June 2, 2024. The 3 day event is designed to introduce birders of all ages and skill levels to the unique boreal bird species and habitats in the Adirondack Park.  The celebration features birding field trips to local Important Bird Areas (IBA’s), with full day field trips on Friday and half day trips on Saturday and Sunday.  The field trips have limited capacity so pre-registration is required.

The Paul Smith’s College Visitor Interpretive Center in Paul Smiths, NY will host beginner bird walks, expert presentations, interactive programs and activities for the whole family in addition to the off site field trips. Join us for presentations of Adirondack Raptors with Mark Mankse, keynote presentations from Matt Young founder of the Finch Research Network, Kyle Horton of Colorado State University, and more!

This year, the celebration is working in conjunction with Uihlein Farm and Heaven Hill in Lake Placid. The celebration is made possible by partnership with Explore Adirondack Frontier and Northern New York Audubon.
