Co-hosted by the Alaska Maritime National Wildlife Refuge and Friends of Alaska National Wildlife Refuges, this year’s festival program promises to offer an array of events to celebrate the spring migration of Alaska’s shorebirds (134 species were identified during the 2022 festival!).
Kachemak Bay (near Homer, Alaska) provides miles of shoreline and intertidal habitat for migrating birds. Kachemak Bay’s unique ecology, easy accessibility to beaches, and the scenic landscapes of Homer make this a prime location to experience this annual migration. Kachemak Bay is a site of International Significance in the Western Hemisphere Shorebird Reserve Network.
