Avian Adventures: Spring Migration

After a cold winter, spring bird migration is welcome-in both sight and sound. Migration starts early with species like Turkey Vulture and American Woodcock arriving as early as late February. March and April bring ducks as inland waters melt. May is when we reunite with most songbirds, including beautifully colored warblers. Some birds remain in our area for nesting while others continue migrating north. Learn about migration flyways, which dates to expect which species, suggested times and places to witness migration, and how we can help our avian neighbors in the wake of climate change and habitat loss.
