Dubai Safari Park celebrated the World Migratory Bird Day on 13th October, 2018. We organized a bird watching programme for our employees and visited Al Qudra Lakes in Al Marmoom Conservation Reserve, Dubai, United Arab Emirates. It was a successful programme. Many species of common and rare birds were sighted in which many were migratory and winter visitor to the country. Discussion was made on long term conservation planning of migratory birds in the UAE and elsewhere.

Students from different schools will be taken outdoors for birding and different sorts of nature and wildlife related activities and a small workshop on wildlife awareness and conservation.
