World Migratory Bird Day will be celebrated on May 10th in the spring and October 11th 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.
