The festival with the most spectacular setting! Visit the Olympic Peninsula to discover the birds of the coastal Pacific Northwest—Marbled Murrelets, Rhinoceros Auklets, Harlequin Ducks, dippers, Black Oystercatchers, Long-tailed Ducks, and more. Guided field trips, a boat cruise in the Strait of Juan de Fuca, silent auction, and a gala banquet.
Our featured speaker is Tony Angell: “Revealing the Secret Lives of Owls”. Join the Birdfest Pre-trip for a three-day, two-night birding cruise of the San Juan Islands, April 12-14. Immediately following BirdFest April 17-19, join us out in Neah Bay exploring northwest coastal Washington by land and sea, a region rarely seen by birders. The timing of the Olympic BirdFest is set to overlap wintering birds and the beginning of spring migration.
In addition to the field trips, birders may participate in presentations, workshops and a banquet. A tour explaining the Jamestown S’Klallam tribal totem poles at the Tribal Center and the Seven Cedars Casino will also be offered.
