Why Celebrate Migratory Birds?
Public awareness and concern are crucial components of migratory bird conservation. Citizens who are enthusiastic about birds, informed about threats, and empowered to become involved in addressing those threats can tremendously contribute to maintaining healthy bird populations. By modeling what can be done and involving people, their interest and involvement in stewardship can grow.
One of the most successful vehicles for public education on migratory birds is International Migratory Bird Day(IMBD). Across the Americas, Bird Day events provide great ways for people to get involved.
