World Migratory Bird Day

  • Trowbridge Ranger Station New Haven< CT (map)

In 2025, World Migratory Bird Day will be celebrated on May 10 in the spring and October 11 in fall. The conservation theme this year is Shared Spaces: Creating Bird-Friendly Cities and Communities. This year’s theme promotes the importance of a healthy coexistence between people and birds by focusing on creating bird-friendly cities and communities.

Bird friendly practices include creating healthy habitats, reducing bird collisions with buildings and glass, reducing pollution, and providing ample food sources for birds. No matter what type of community you live in, you can help birds!
