Overview

World Migratory Bird Day is a global campaign that serves as a beacon for conservation efforts aimed at safeguarding migratory birds and their journeys across borders. Celebrated twice a year—in May and October—WMBD reflects the cyclical nature of bird migration and the varying peak periods in the northern and southern hemispheres. This worldwide initiative triggers countless educational events, uniting people in a common goal to protect migratory birds and their habitats.

Each year, WMBD selects a central theme to inspire action and concentrate global efforts towards preserving the habitats and wellbeing of migratory birds. The 2025 theme underscores the urgent need for bird-friendly cities, combining scientific insights with practical steps for individuals and communities to support these remarkable creatures.

About This Charity

Rocky Point Bird Observatory seeks to influence and inform conservation and ecological management practices for migratory birds in western North America through monitoring, scientific research, and public education. RPBO has a unique location on the southern tip of Vancouver Island. We monitor many species that are not available to other monitoring stations. Also of note is that we are the only Pacific Coast observatory in Canada.  The organization has been a proud Canadian Migration Monitoring Network (CMMN) member since 1994. Members of the CMMN track the migration of Canada's birds in the spring and fall each year, adding to our knowledge of population trends, demographics, and phenology and providing other essential information about the species that pass through each location. Governments, environmental organizations, scientists, and others use this data to direct our collective actions and improve our ability to conserve Canada's birds.
