World Migratory Bird Day Community Celebration

Calendar/Event Details

Sat, May. 9 @ 11:00 a.m.–3:00 p.m.

This is a drop-in event. No advanced registration required.

Each night during peak migration, thousands of birds move quietly over Washington—tiny travelers navigating by stars, wind, and instinct on journeys that span continents. By morning, many settle into places like Seward Park to rest and refuel, turning our local forests into vital waypoints in a much larger story.

Join us for a joyful, all-day World Migratory Bird Day celebration—part discovery, part adventure. Drop in anytime to explore interactive displays, enjoy short screenings, get hands-on with activities for all ages, and pick up a few fun giveaways along the way. Whether you stay for a while or make a day of it, there’s something here for curious kids, seasoned birders, and everyone in between.

Come celebrate the wonder of migration, the magic of birds, and the places that connect us all.
