Memorial Day Weekend is time to watch parades, have cookouts, and celebrate the first weekend of summer.
But for two dozen die hard New Hampshire bird watchers, the weekend was not time for relaxing.
They took part in New Hampshire Audubon's "Birdathon".
Their goal was to find as many bird species as they could in 24 hours.
New Hampshire Public Radio's David Darman joined one of the teams, and filed this report.
