Celebrate World Migratory Bird Day: “Sing, Fly, Soar – Like a Bird!”
World Migratory Bird Day is this Saturday, May 8th. Celebrated across the world on two peak days each year – on the second Saturday in May and second Saturday in October – World Migratory Bird Day is the only international awareness-raising and education program that celebrates the migration of bird species along all the major flyways of the world.
Journey North is proud to join with you, our citizen scientists, and many others who believe strongly that migratory birds connect us with their unique songs and flights, and remind us of the importance of working together, across borders, to protect them.
Join the global celebration by listening to - and watching birds - wherever you find yourself this weekend. And submit your bird observations to Journey North.
