Purple Martin Migration Watch Party

Bring your family and friends to experience the spectacle of the migration of thousands of Purple Martins. In the summer months, Purple Martins gather in large numbers before heading to their wintering grounds in South America. They spend their days feeding on flying insects to fuel up for their long journey and come together to rest at night, sometimes in groups of up to 500,000! The free, family-friendly event is fun for all ages. And don't forget to bring lawn chairs and water!

Registration is encouraged so we can send you the details of the exact location when known.
