SUMMARY:2020 World Migratory Bird Day Live Online
DESCRIPTION:World Migratory Bird Day (WMBD) is a global event that celebrates the phenomenon of bird migrations and serves as a call to action to protect the birds we share. Environment for the Americas organizes WMBD in the Americas\, connecting people to bird conservation from Canada to Argentina and the Caribbean. WMBD is officially celebrated on the second Saturday in May (May 9\, 2020) and the second Saturday in October each year (October 10\, 2020). Because of the nature of bird migrations\, however\, on-the-ground events take place year-round. Every Day is Bird Day! \nThis event spans three days and features a large number of presentations for all ages streaming on Facebook.

SUMMARY:Global Birding Birdwatching Event
DESCRIPTION:WHAT ARE THE AIMS OF THE EVENT?\n1. We would like to have as many people as possible join in our Global Bird Weekend on October 17 and 18\, 2020. COVID-19 lockdown meant many people became more aware of their local natural surroundings. We want everyone to celebrate their love for nature and birds across the world in their own local areas or “patch”. Part of our weekend event will include eBird’s October Big Day when we aim to create a world record for the largest number of birds seen by the greatest number of people on this peak migration weekend. We hope that at least 25\,000 participants will go out Birdwatching on Saturday\, October 17 and tell us what they see. \n2. Record as many different species of bird as possible. Let us know by recording your sightings on eBird. Our goal is to record more than 6\,000 bird species. \n3. On Sunday October 18 take your camera\, phone\, friends and/or sketch pad to your favorite birdwatching area and share those places with your new global friends on our social media pages using:\n#GLOBALBIRDWEEKEND\n#GLOBALBIRDING\nand upload your images to eBird’s dedicated Global Bird Weekend page. You can still upload your bird sightings to eBird that day too! \n4. Raise funds for the Birdlife Conservation Project: Stop the illegal trade in birds!
