Birds have no borders and migrate thousands of miles every year.
Mapping Migraciones is a year-long project by Audubon California with National Audubon Society and Latino Outdoors celebrating Latinidad, migration, and the stories that connect us across the Americas.
The interactive map uses migratory bird data and stories from people like you to give us a full picture of how birds and people are connected through geography and culture. Want to deeper dive? Panels and discussions throughout the year will give you an opportunity to learn more about the joy of migration. Check-in throughout the year and watch the map grow to include more birds, migration patterns, and stories.
Follow the migration stories to see how people and birds intersect as they make their way through the Americas.
Take our survey for a chance to see your story on the Mapping Migraciones interactive map!
