Morro Bay Winter Bird Festival

Welcome to the Winter Bird Festival

Every Martin Luther King weekend over 450 birders visit Morro Bay, California, a Globally Important Bird Area, to see, photograph, and learn more about birds.  Morro Bay is located halfway between Los Angeles and San Francisco on the Pacific Flyway. 

The area offers pristine beaches, beautiful state parks, an excellent natural history museum, panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean and, best of all, thousands of birds.  Over 200 species are usually sighted during the Festival weekend.

The 15th Anniversary of the Morro Bay Winter Bird Festival will be held January 14-17, 2011--the registration deadline is January 4, 2011.  Over 100 individual events are featured,  including pelagic cruises, boat rides and kayaking in the Bay, van trips throughout the county, as well as many informative workshops. 

Registration on this website begins October 1.  Those of you who have attended our Festival previously know that the events fill up fast, so be sure to make your reservations early and come join us!
