Mr. António Guterres, Secretary-General of the United Nations
As they travel the globe, migratory birds lift our spirits and remind us of nature, connecting people, ecosystems and nations. [...] World Migratory Bird Day is an opportunity to appreciate migratory birds and the Earth’s natural cycles that are so important for human well-being.
