On May 13th, Environment for the Americas is celebrating International Migratory Bird Day to raise awareness of the birds that connect the countries across the Americas through their migration. For this occasion, Le Nichoir and the Canadian Wildlife Federation (CWF) have organized a series of activities to celebrate the return of our migratory birds from their winter down south.
We are excited to be hosting one of three Wild Migration Maps, a giant 11m x 8m floor map showing the migration pattern of 20 at-risk Canadian species, at the Stephen F. Shaar Community Centre in Hudson.
Come walk on the map to trace the migration of birds across the Americas, learn about the wonders of migration and discover the reasons behind this behaviour. Le Nichoir’s biologists and an educator from the CWF will be there with a series of fun and informative activities for the whole family.
Advance registration is required:
