تنطلق ملايين الطيور مرتين كل عام في رحلات ملحمية تُعدّ من أعظم عجائب العالم الطبيعي. لكن رحلات الطيور، الكبيرة والصغيرة، مليئة بالمخاطر. في #اليوم_العالمي_للطيور_المهاجرة، اكتشفوا كيف أصبحت مدينتا سياتل وإسطنبول ملاذين آمنين لهذه الطيور الثمينة: unep.org/ar/alakhbar-walqss/…

To mark #WorldMigratoryBirdDay UNFICYP organized a bi-communal bird watching activity in Kalkanli/Kapouti with children and their families in cooperation with @birdlifecyprus and @Kuskor. The day highlights the urgent need for #ClimateAction to protect them from threats like habitat loss, plastic pollution, and the climate crisis. #A4P More 👉 worldmigratorybirdday.org

🦩🌍 #WorldMigratoryBirdDay Millions of birds travel thousands of kilometres from Siberia & Central Asia to India’s wetlands each year, only to find critical habitats under pressure. Today, we commit to protecting their journey. On #WorldMigratoryBirdDay, @UNDP_India & @moefcc announce CoHABITAT - @theGEF-supported project protecting wetlands, forests & grasslands along the Central Asian Flyway. Because the sky has no fences. Neither can our commitment to conservation. #WorldMigratoryBirdDay2026

Today is World Migratory Bird Day, and we’re here for it! 🐦 Since 1987, Kennedy teams have tracked varieties of birds like roseate spoonbills, wood storks, herons, egrets, and more to monitor habitat use, nesting trends, and wetland health. We continue aerial and ground surveys and spring colony checks to help protect these birds across the spaceport’s coastal ecosystem. Check out some photos from our latest survey.

It’s #WorldMigratoryBirdDay! 🐦🌍 Millions of people around the world contribute vital data on migratory birds through citizen science — helping track migration patterns, population trends, and habitat changes across flyways. These observations support research, conservation, and policy, while also raising awareness and inspiring stewardship for nature.

Today we celebrate the incredible journeys of migratory birds — nature’s long‑distance travellers whose flights connect continents. Migratory birds aren’t just beautiful to watch — they’re vital indicators of our planet’s health. Their epic routes cross oceans, deserts, and borders, reminding us that protecting them means protecting the shared environment we all depend on. Join us in honoring their resilience and the ecosystems that sustain them. #MigratoryBirdsDay #ConventionOnWetlands youtu.be/XRnYh7pWoYk
