Saturday marks World Migratory Bird Day, an important date in Medicine Hat with a strong meaning at the nature centre, says a park interpreter at Police Point Park.
“We do a lot of things related to birds here, we have a very nice population of resident birds that are here year-round, but we also have a large population of migrant birds that head south for the winter and then return to our area to breed and nest or move to our area or areas further north to do the same thing,” says Marty Drut. “This is just a day to focus on those birds that are migrating to and from wintering grounds.”
