Festival

World Migratory Bird Day is celebrated annually at the Alaska Zoo with our longtime partner U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. This year’s event will feature birding signs with QR codes which visitors can scan with phone cameras to learn about birds and birding, binoculars available to borrow during your visit, take home items courtesy of U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Migratory Birds and an early morning guided bird walk (must buy tickets in advance online, spaces limited) to observe species passing through zoo grounds in early morning hours.

There will be information tables for BLESS (Big Lake Environment Support Society), Ducks Unlimited, Nature Alberta, Canadian Wildlife Federation and Alberta Provincial Parks.

Activities include crafts for children, pond dipping and bird watching/identification.  A large map of the Americas will highlight migratory routes of this years special birds and another display will highlight how we can help birds with the night light pollution.

Considerando que OPADES posee como misión desarrollar una cultura de respeto a la naturaleza con la participación activa de la sociedad, esta propuesta se enfoca en establecer un espacio que incluya la degustación de cervezas artesanales, en un ambiente de happy hour, para socializar con entusiastas de la observación de aves y el público en general. 

The Urban Birding Festival of the Twin Cities is a weekend full of fun and educational activities which celebrate the birds that we see in the Minneapolis-St Paul metro area of Minnesota. It is an opportunity to meet our neighbors, connect with nature, and increase our understanding of how our lives intersect with the lives of birds! Activities and events are held at different locations around the Twin Cities and some are held virtually.

A great way to enjoy bird watching is by going to festivals—they’re organized to get you to great birding spots at a great time of year, and they’re a great way to meet people. Experts and locals help you see more birds, and you’ll meet other visitors who share your hobby.
