Join us to celebrate the World Migratory Bird Day!

The naturalistic Observatory of Culuccia Island invites you on May 14th, from 10 to 13 a.m., to discover the wetland of Porto Liscia, where birds migrating from northern Africa to Europe stop, rest and feed.

The Observatory team will lead a two hours walk to observe the birds and their habitats, then children will create small bird-feeder to take home and put up in winter time.

They’re back! Mark the return of many fine feathered friends as we celebrate World Migratory Bird Day with an educational talk and hike for families at the Boyd Woods Audubon Sanctuary. On this walk, led by Kent Center School Science Teacher Josh Szwed and LHAS President Marie Kennedy, we’ll learn about migration flyways, marvel at some migratory champions, and learn how you can help give returning birds a warm welcome! We’ll meet at the parking lot, make our way to the bird blind, and learn about the theme for this year’s World Migratory Bird Day.

The United States Forest Service will partner with the Meeker School District to celebrate World Migratory Bird Day for the 20th consecutive year. Mary Cunningham, Biological Scientist on the Blanco Ranger District of the White River National Forest, will present the 2022 PPT presentation to students in grades 4-8 at Meeker Elementary and Barone Middle Schools to explore the theme 'Dim the Lights for Birds at Night'. All students will go on bird walks from 8-10 AM each morning beginning on April 26 through May 12.

Come celebrate World Migratory Bird Day at Steinaker State Park near Vernal. Join us for a hike, birding presentation, and dark sky events!

About this event

Steinaker State Park and the Division of Wildlife Resources are hosting an all-day celebration of World Migratory Bird Day on May 14, 2022, at Steinaker State Park near Vernal.

Event schedule

We are primary school "Velešićki Heroji" from Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina. The students and teachers from our school will make a bird-themed multimedia exhibition this year. Several mini projects will be included. We are going to set up a bird exhibition in our botanical garden, organize multimedia workshops and lectures, and engage in DIY activities. Our goal is to raise awareness of our students on the necessity of protecting the migratory birds while familiarizing children with a variety of bird species in their local environment.

Aceh has a fairly large coastline, with the eastern part of Aceh bordering Thailand and Malaysia, the Indian Ocean, and Andaman Islands. The strategic location strongly supports the presence of migratory birds internationally along the East Asia-Australasian Flyway (EAAF). From the results of research conducted by Van Mrie & Voous (1988); Crossland (2000); Iqbal et al (2010); Iqbal et al (2013); Putra et al (2019); Iqbal et al (2020), they recorded 42 species of coastal birds that migrated along the east coast of Aceh province.

Join the Ottawa Valley Wild Bird Care Centre and Wild Birds Unlimited (Kanata) under the picnic structure at Walter Baker Park to celebrate WMBD! 

Pack your picnic and drop by the covered picnic structure between 10:00 am - 2:00 pm to:

- Participate in several bird-themed craft activities

- Challenge yourself to the Dim the Lights for Birds at Night scavenger hunt

- Borrow a pair of binoculars and go for a bird walk

- Learn more about Ottawa's only organization dedicated to rehabilitating injured wild birds

We're in one of the most famous areas for birdwatching, in the middle of the route of migrating birds of prey that cross the Strait of Gibraltar from Africa and are headed to Europe for nesting. 

Together with our ornithologist, we'll walk from Arenzano to the Scarpeggin hut and during the trekking we'll learn about habits, routes, and journeys of the various species that we'll observe during the day.

Binoculars are recommended.

Partecipation is free, booking is mandatory.

Primary School students will be engaged in the art installation and story telling session. Selected students will showcase a dance performance to spread this year's World Migratory Bird Day theme of Light Pollution, with the slogan "Dim the lights for birds at night!" . We will also discuss ecological imbalance and conservation of migratory birds and their habitat.
