Feathers, Flyways and Friends
Shorebirds Education Australia

Feathers

Shorebirds are extraordinary birds. Even though they are usually small some travel enormous distances, migrating up and down the hemispheres so that they can follow the warm weather.

Dive deeper and find out about:

  • different types of shorebirds
  • where they live
  • where they travel
  • what threats they have
  • how they are protected
  • what we can do to help
  • how other people help

Have fun!!
