The 9th annual Spring Baltimore Birding Weekend was hosted May 9 – 11, 2025. The weekend included an exciting itinerary of bird watching field trips in and around Baltimore. Excursions included guided hikes and in city parks, unique natural areas, and areas with restricted public access. You can find details on the offerings on this website.

The combined tally from all sites explored during our May 2025 event was 147 species! And yes — we have Baltimore Orioles and Common Ravens on the species list! Click on the eBird Trip Report for more details.

In 2025, we donated $1,000 to the Phoenix Wildlife Center, a non-profit organization dedicated to the rehabilitation and return to the wild of native birds, mammals, and reptiles and to the education of the public on wildlife issues. Thanks to our guests and guides for their support!
