The World Series of Birding is coming to Maine. For the very first time in its 37-year history, World Series host New Jersey Audubon has opened the event up to teams all along the Atlantic Flyway for the May 9 competition, using new rules to ensure safety during the COVID-19 crisis. Maine Audubon is entering a team, who will spend 24 hours finding as many different bird species as they can, trying to beat teams from all over the Eastern Seaboard. The event will be a showcase for the diverse birdlife and habitat in Maine.
