Unleash your inner Wild Thing!
This year, we’re excited to partner with SWIFTY and the city of Yachats to bring you Wild Things - our Migratory Bird Day celebration!
Join us on Saturday, May 11 from 9 AM - 4 PM at the Yachats Commons for a family-friendly event that celebrates the wild and wonderful biodiversity of the Oregon Coast. Admission is free, and here are some of the exciting things to look forward to:
Educational and interactive booths for all ages, exploring the wildlife around us.
A parade of Wild Things featuring larger-than-life wearable puppets (designed by Michael Guerriero and built through a great community art project) where everyone can channel their inner Wild Thing. Come dressed ready to let your wild side be free! Be a tree, be a bee, be an otter, or be yourself. And join us in the parade of the Wild Things.
Native Plant Sale hosted by MidCoast Watersheds Council and Lincoln Soil and Water Conservation District.
Musical performance by Your Song My Song, uplifting and engaging for all ages.
The chance to explore during low tide for an up-close experience with marine life.
Bird and plant walks through some of Yachats extra special spaces.
A chance to celebrate Migratory Bird Day 2024
And so much more!
