World Migratory Bird Day is officially coming up on May 12th, but Fond du Lac is getting an early start on the celebration.
Fond du Lac was named one of Wisconsin’s “Bird Cities” in 2012, and Laura DeGolier says “we have to put on a celebration that reminds people of the value of birds, encourage people to plant bird habitat…and we do it at this time of the year, because that’s when the birds are moving.”
Birds know no borders. Many of the species that sing to us all summer have winter homes farther south in Central or South America. Some birds just pass through, and some settle in for the summer. Whatever their destination, May is a time of year where we can see many species in our parks. World Migratory Bird Day is a celebration of the diversity of birds that live among us, and a reminder of our ability to protect these animals as they travel extraordinary distances each year.

During our project of bird ringing to study the spring migration of birds (2018 is the 21st year of activity of our ringing station), we will also complete a detailed list of all the sightings of birds during the weekend and we will greet all the visitors of the National Park, explaining them the migration routes and the ecology of birds, and raising awareness about conservation.
The event will bring community and schools together in an educational activity with a mission to conserve Yala wetland and its habitat. The event aims to unite environment conservation clubs, environmentalist and conservation partners.
We are running Khurkh Bird ringing station in below location since 2015. This year we are planning to invite two classes of students from two nearest county high schools (Khurkh and Binder town).
Approximately, 100 students will see our ringing station during 12-13th May, they will learn about how study bird migration and bird ringing helps bird conservation.
Birdwalks timed to the World Migratory Bird Day will be organized on IBAs in three different regions of Uzbekistan. On IBA ‘Dalverzin hunting-management area’, for instance, birdwalks for local people and visitors of this site will be focused on breeding biome species of the unique riparian forest. This event will be in line with ‘We need this forest!’ campaign aimed at the restoration and maintenance of the riparian forest in Dalverzin.
