Since its inaugural year in 2004, the John L. Borom Alabama Coastal BirdFest has brought thousands of birders and nature lovers from across the country to the Alabama Gulf Coast. The festival has seen substantial growth over the last two decades, and now features more than 50 birding and nature tours across 27 venues during the four-day event.

A sponsorship contribution to Alabama Coastal BirdFest not only gives you exposure to both local and nationwide birdwatchers and nature lovers - it makes a direct impact on local bird conservation on the Alabama coast by supporting our Alabama Coastal Bird Stewardship Program!

Net proceeds from Alabama Coastal BirdFest directly support Alabama Audubon’s Coastal Bird Stewardship Program, which works year-round to protect our coast’s most vulnerable bird species.

Please visit our Coastal Bird Stewardship Program page to learn more!
