Due to the amount of snow still in the Montana Creek area, we are rescheduling this event! Update your calendars, we would love to see you there!
Celebrate World Migratory Bird Day! JAS and the US Forest Service Juneau Ranger District will present a celebration at Juneau Community Garden, May 17, 2026 from 8-10 a.m. A bird-banding demonstration will allow the public to see how scientists catch, tag and safely release birds, allowing close views of beautiful songbirds. This long-standing tradition is a favorite for kids, families, and birders who like to see very fine details. Conservation materials will also be available. This year’s WMBD theme is “Every bird counts – your observations matter.” We will be highlighting local and regional citizen science opportunities throughout May.
Bonus: May 9 is also eBird’s Global Big Day. Birders be sure to put in a checklist for that day!
