Community Day at the John James Audubon Center
September 17, 2023 @ 11:00 am - 4:00 pm
Birds are headed south for the winter!
Enjoy this family-friendly, community event featuring bird walks and bird ambassadors, children’s crafts, music, food, beer sampling, and more as we say so long to many of our feathered friends until next spring and celebrate their winter destinations as part of Hispanic Heritage Month!
Places like Colombia, Panama, and Mexico are where birds like Ruby-throated Hummingbirds, Prothonotary Warblers, and Rose-breasted Grosbeak spend the winter, while Dark-eyed Juncos or Northern Flickers may go no further south than your backyard.
Get to know more about migration and the birds that unite us across the Americas while discovering the many South and Central American countries they visit and how you can protect them throughout their journeys.
