Outdoor rendering of the new Bird House
The endeavor to save imperiled migratory birds transcends the world-class conservation science already underway at the Smithsonian's National Zoo and Conservation Biology Institute; it entails inspiring millions of change makers to join together in actions great and small.
As such, the Smithsonian’s National Zoo is transforming its historic 1928 Bird House and surrounding plateau into an educational celebration of birds and bird migration through the Americas. The Bird House will be a first-of-its-kind zoo or museum attraction of this size to introduce visitors to birds’ remarkable ability to make miraculous annual journeys.
