The East Asian Australasian Flyway Webinar

Date: 2023-05-17

The East Asian-Australasian Flyway is one of the great flyways for migratory birds. This flyway stretches from the Russian Far East, Alaska, heading south to East Asia and South East Asia to Australia and New Zealand covering 22 countries. During this migration, migratory birds rely on many highly productive wetlands in which to rest and feed so that they may build up sufficient energy to continue their migration. Due to the importance of these over 50 million migratory waterbirds there is international cooperation to protect these waterbirds and their important habitats. In this webinar, you will hear all about this important migration from a wetland and waterbird expert, Phil Straw.
