American Ornithological Society 2026 Conference Bandana

The American Ornithological Society annual conference for 2026 will be held in Amherst, MA. This year’s theme, “Hope is the Thing with Feathers,” is inspired by the poem by Emily Dickinson. The official conference collection was created through a collaboration between American Ornithological Society and Bird Collective. This 100% cotton bandana is screen printed in Brooklyn and features five iconic eastern forest birds: the Black-capped Chickadee, Wood Thrush, Prairie Warbler, Eastern Whip-poor-will, and American Woodcock.
