SUMMARY:Harney County Migratory Bird Festival
DESCRIPTION:Spend an amazing weekend witnessing the spectacular spring migration in the Harney Basin of Southeast Oregon. View thousands of migratory birds as they rest and feed in the wide-open spaces of Oregon’s high desert. From waterfowl to shorebirds\, cranes to raptors\, wading birds to songbirds\, you’ll see them all! The festival offers non-stop birding activities along with historical and cultural information for all ages. Whether you’re a beginner or a lifelong wildlife enthusiast\, the festival has something for everyone. Don’t miss this extraordinary weekend. The Harney County Migratory Bird Festival is generously organized and hosted for the benefit of our community by the Friends of Malheur Refuge\, Bureau of Land Management\, Bird Alliance of Oregon\, High Desert Partnership\, and Harney County.

SUMMARY:Olympic Peninsula BirdFest
DESCRIPTION:Set on Washington State’s North Olympic Peninsula\, between the million-acre Olympic National Park and the Strait of Juan de Fuca\, this region is renowned for its rich birdlife and diverse habitats\, making it one of the Pacific Northwest’s premier birding destinations.Olympic BirdFest takes place each April\, timed perfectly to capture the overlap of wintering birds and spring migration. Species such as Harlequin and Long-tailed Ducks\, seabirds\, and winter songbirds are still present\, while spring arrivals like Rufous Hummingbirds return from Mexico alongside the blooming red-flowering currants.  \n\n\n\nExpert-led field trips explore some of the region’s most iconic birding locations\, including Sequim Bay\, Port Angeles Harbor\, Dungeness Bay\, Ediz Hook\, Dungeness Spit\, and the Elwha River. Additional outings venture through forests\, fields\, and prairies to seek out a variety of songbirds. Beyond the field trips\, BirdFest offers engaging presentations\, workshops\, and a Saturday night banquet featuring a special guest speaker and raffle.  \n\n\n\nSee the BirdFest 2025 recap video here \n\n\n\nSequim is the ancestral home of the Jamestown S’Klallam Tribe (a partner of the non-profit Dungeness River Nature Center). Their Tribal headquarters are at the head of Sequim Bay at Blyn. A tour explaining traditional Northwest Coast totemic art (totem poles\, house posts\, masks\, and signage) at the Jamestown S’Klallam Tribal Center and their Seven Cedars Resort properties will also be offered. For more information about the Jamestown S’Klallam Tribe\, see https://library.jamestowntribe.org/home where you can also find pre-recorded presentations by tribal elders and leaders on the Tribe’s culture and history. \n\n\n\nOlympic BirdFest is the Dungeness River Nature Center’s largest annual fundraiser brought to you in partnership by the Olympic Peninsula Audubon Society and the Jamestown S’Klallam Tribe. This event supports hands on environmental education that inspires the next generation of bird lovers. \n\n\n\nOlympic Peninsula BirdFest
