World Migratory Bird Day (WMBD) was initiated in 2006 and is a annual awareness-raising campaign highlighting the need for the protection of migratory birds and their habitats.
On the second weekend each May, people around the world take action and organise public events such as bird festivals, education programmes and birdwatching excursions to dramas, festivals, exhibitions, painting competitions and other awareness raising activities to celebrate World Migratory Bird Day. More information on www.worldmigratorybirdday.org/
This year the theme is - Save migratory birds in crisis - every species counts!
The main organisers include UNEP, Convention for Migratory Species, African Eurasian Migratory Waterbird Agreement, BirdLife International, Wetlands International and the East Asian - Australasian Flyway Partnership.
Make a difference - organise an activity and promote awareness to conserve these beautiful creatures and their habitats, to make this world special.
