~ Our 35th Season ~

Minnesota Birding Weeks (MBW) is again scheduling another season of unique, modestly priced, out-of-state birding trips – our 35th year. (There were no MBWeeks in three seasons during our 37-year history of MBWeekends.) After so many years, we have had a total of over 120 MBWeeks with about 1,350 participants, and a composite list of 720+ species.

Please be sure to note the relatively inexpensive cost of MBWeeks – typically less than half (sometimes close to a third!) of other tour company fees for similar trips. Note as well our policy of providing “MBW store credit” refunds to MBWeeks participants if total trip expenses end up less than the amount budgeted.

MBWeek fees generally include transportation expenses (by rented vehicles), the leader’s fee and expenses, entry fees/permits, lodging, etc. Air fares (or other travel expenses to/from the base city) and meals are not included. (Note that this does not apply to the Black Hills MBWeek which will operate like an extended MBWeekend.)

In addition to these MBWeeks, please visit the MBWEEKENDS page for information on those shorter in-state MBWs.
