A Blues for Birds fundraiser to benefit Felix Neck Wildlife Sanctuary takes place at the Ritz on Saturday, April 30, beginning at 10 p.m. The event aims to raise money for the Felix Neck bird-a-thon team, which is part of an event where teams of birders spend 24 hours trying to spot the most species in Massachusetts.

Interested birders can sign up for the time while listening to the Chandler Blues Band at the Ritz on Saturday night. Cover charge is $5 per person.
