About
Welcome to the Annual Detroit Lakes Festival of Birds! Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced birder, the Festival of Birds has something for you! Detroit Lakes is located in a unique merging of three biomes – tallgrass prairie, hardwood and conifer forests with a landscape peppered with lakes and wetlands. This habitat is a migration hotspot for more than 250 species of birds! Our festival goal is to provide you with a quality birding experience.
Experienced leaders help birders see several species and learn about habitats on early morning field trips on Friday and Saturday mornings.
Get ready for a night of laughter with humorist Al Batt on Friday, May 15. Photographer and author Peter Cavanagh's presentation Saturday, May 16 is based on his book "How Birds Fly."
