A team of students and volunteers will make sure every visitor of the zoo who is interested in the event gets to do a fun and educational activity and participate in birdwatching. 

Last ten year bird consultant use this place for beginer birdwacher to lear shorebirds or waterbirds. and this place is favorite place or stop over migratory shorebirds, that's why we use this place for birwatching, identification or cunting.

World Migratory Bird Day (WMBD) is a celebration that held every year since 2006 in concern to create public awareness on nature conservation, especially migratory birds.

Over the last 2 years, Biodiversity Society found that migratory birds, especially Oriental Honey Buzzard and Japanese Sparrow-hawk use the same place in Mount Slamet Forest for roosting site. Some of them roosted in the village which are really close to human settlements. In order to increase awareness on local people, we would like to promote this information to local villagers, so they can live in harmony with migratory birds and protect the area from poachers who are still frequently present in Indonesia.

Gorontalo Biodiversity Forum is going to celebrate the World Migratory Bird Day 2016 for the first time in Gorontalo region of Sulawesi, Indonesia. The main objective of the event is to raise public awareness of migratory bird and their conservation action especially on protecting their habitat of Limboto Lake, one of the important spot for migratory bird and other endemic faunas in Gorontalo. On the day of 10 May 2016, we are going to have birding at Limboto Lake in the morning and then continuing with educational activity and media trip.
