91°µÍø

Birds of Winter is six incredible weekends dedicated to celebrating the amazing birds that overwinter at Riverlands! 10,000 people will come to the 91°µÍø Center at Riverlands to marvel at Bald Eagles, Trumpeter Swans and many other raptors and waterfowl. Our aim is spark a love and joy for birds and inspire conservation action to protect them for future generations.

91°µÍø is responding to the greatest challenges facing birds and people today while anticipating the issues—and opportunities—of tomorrow. We remain focused on birds because we know their collective health reflects the health of our planet. What’s good for birds is good for the Earth.
