Ensuring A Safe Journey: World Migratory Bird Day

This YouTube video was produced by the Toronto Zoo. BrantaMedia.Com was not paid to post this video and is not partnered with the Toronto Zoo.

Today is World #MigratoryBirdDay, a day to celebrate the incredible diversity of birds that we share our planet with.

Right here at home, Toronto falls within one of the 4 major flyways in Northern America, so we are particularly lucky to enjoy the avian sights! Within the GTA, we have around 350 different species and upwards of 50 million birds either passing through or returning to nest from their overwintering grounds.

Some travel from as far as South America and will be heading to parts of Northern Canada and Alaska.

Learn more about the importance of ensuring a safe journey from Jon Spero, Lead Keeper of Birds and Terrestrial Invertebrates at your Zoo. He has an important message, especially during the ongoing #LightOutTO campaign.
