Join us for our next Wings Over Willapa festival on September 23-26, 2021!
This annual birding and nature festival is a celebration of Willapa National Wildlife Refuge’s many species and diverse habitats. Our keynote speaker is Rosemary Mosco of Bird and Moon, who will be presenting workshops related to her nature-themed comics. And we’ll have an amazing array of tours, classes, workshops and other events happening all around the Long Beach Peninsula and Willapa Bay. Whether you’re an experienced birder or just getting acquainted with the great outdoors, nature lovers of all ages are sure to find plenty to do. We look forward to seeing you!
Please note: 2019's program is shown here as an example of what we're planning for 2021.
