International Migratory Bird Day celebrates the amazing migrations of birds across the Western Hemisphere and the Caribbean. In the United States, this event is usually celebrated in May, and in Latin America events begin in October. 

Hummingbird migrations are a big part of IMBD. In 2016, WHP partners joined the celebration at four sites: Jardín Botánico Regional de Cadeyreta, Jardín Etnobotánico, the University of Guadalajara, and Ahuacapan Turismo de Naturaleza.  Their activities included bird walks, presentations on bird migration and conservation, and  personal talks with members of the community. We hope these events continue and expand i n the years to come. 

Host IMBD at your site!
