Summary

The Beaver Island Birding Trail announced the sixth annual Warblers on the Water festival for May 24–26, 2019. The organizer’s May 29 retrospective reported that the event was successfully completed, including expert-led field trips, a High Island trip, and presentations on the island’s history and night sky.

Evidence limits

The advance notices and retrospective are organizer sources. Their claims about more than 200 recorded bird species, more than 30 birding sites, and successful completion do not provide an independent species inventory, attendance record, or economic-impact measure.

Sources

  1. The announcement scheduled the sixth annual festival for May 24–26, described field trips to the island’s reported 30-plus birding sites and a featured High Island trip, and advertised presentations on island history and the night sky. The post is an organizer notice and does not establish attendance, species totals, or completion of the program.

  2. The Community Center reposted the same May 24–26 festival announcement and linked a related local television story. This is a second organizer/community distribution channel, not independent confirmation of attendance or completion.

  3. The Beaver Island Association reported that the sixth annual event was successfully completed, including a High Island trip, presentations, transportation support, and night-sky programming. It is an organizer retrospective: it confirms the reported completion and program components but does not provide attendance, species totals, or independent economic impact.

  4. The Community Center announced concessions, visitor information, free internet access, and its role as the birding-trail head on the opening day of Warblers on the Water. This is complementary venue programming, not attendance or festival-outcome evidence.
