Bird Tattoo Contest

Picture
Show off your (family friendly!) bird tattoo and share the story behind it at this fun and creative Biggest Week event. Whether your ink is bold, subtle, colorful, or classic, we invite you to bring a publicly shareable tattoo and impress our judges with both the artwork and the meaning it holds. It’s a celebration of birds, creativity, and the personal connections that inspire us.

Life List Trading Card Night

Life List Trading Cards have been a huge hit ever since Christina Baal of Drawing 10,000 Birds released them! Join us for a laid-back bird trading card exchange night during the Biggest Week! Bring your cards to trade, chat, and connect with fellow birders. Cards are available now through the BSBO Swamp Shop, or you can pick some up during the Biggest Week.
