The Carden Challenge is our most popular fundraiser. Teams of up to 5 people (or more depending on your category) spend 24 hours on The Carden Alvar counting as many species as possible. Last year’s participants logged 213 species!

Species IDing takes place from Friday May 23rd at 6pm to Saturday May 24th at 6pm. Participants either camp or stay near The Alvar Friday night. There’s a large organized dinner Saturday night. Please see the below page for more details.

Beginners welcome – the best way to learn birds is with other birders!
