As you may know, our neighbors at Black Swamp Bird Observatory have cancelled the Biggest Week in American Birding for 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Friends of Ottawa National Wildlife Refuge has decided to cancel the West Sister Island Sunset Cruise, food vendors, and the Wildlife Stop and Shop to be held during the Biggest Week. We feel this was the right decision to make given the status of the pandemic and its projection to last well into May. Please be safe, be well, and know that we are looking forward to seeing you when this is all over.
