About this event

  • Event lasts 3 hours

World Migratory Bird Day (WMBD) is an annual awareness-raising campaign highlighting the need for the conservation of migratory birds and their habitats. It has a global outreach and is an effective tool to help raise global awareness of the threats faced by migratory birds, their ecological importance, and the need for international cooperation to conserve them. https://www.migratorybirdday.org/Join us as we welcome back the neo-tropical migrants as they return to their summer territories — from thrushes to warblers, bluebirds to tanagers and beyond. This year's WMBD theme, shared spaces, seeks to highlight how every community — whether urban, rural, or wild — can do things to support our migratory birds.

Don’t forget to bring your binoculars! We will meet at Barlow Nature Preserve. and then head out to explore other nearby WLT properties. After our morning walk there will be some coffee and treats at Barlow, where we can talk about the highlights of the day!
