Our second annual For the Birds Festival will be held at Boldt Castle, in partnership with the Thousand Islands Bridge Authority and Minna Anthony Common Nature Center.

This exciting two day birding event features a variety of workshops that kids, families, birders and birders-in-training can enjoy! Joining us on Heart Island for day one will be Talons! “A Birds of Prey Experience.” Two Master Falconers will educate, engage and entertain visitors with head spinning excitement as they present these amazing and beautiful creatures. Local experts including the Cornell Lab of Ornithology, New York Audubon, the Minna Anthony Common Nature Center and Cornell Cooperative Extension will be available for various bird-related activities for you and your flock! Bird activities will include learning how to identify birds by sight and sound, how to attract birds to your backyard as well as seeing birds up close and personal.

This is a birding event not to miss so make plans to get “bird-y” with us!
