International Migratory Bird Day is celebrated each spring. Celebrations are great for families and often include bird walks, banding demonstrations, shade-grown coffee, and other bird events and information.

PRBO will be participating in the following celebrations:

June 7, 2008 Alcatraz Island. 9:30am-4:30pm
Celebrate International Migratory Bird Day on June 7th from 9:30 a.m. until 4:30 p.m. with PRBO Conservation Science, National Park Service, and Golden Gate Parks Conservancy. Join us in the middle of seabird nesting season on Alcatraz Island for bird walks, a self-guided bird trail, scavenger hunt, slide show and photo exhibit, and information booths. Binoculars will be available for use to get close-up looks at our eight different species of breeding waterbirds. If you have avoided visiting “The Rock” in the past because of its penitentiary past, you will be surprised at its “wild side”. Bring the family!
