  • Copper River Delta Birds by Hand

    Spring is emerging and we are preparing to celebrate the return of the shorebirds to the Copper River Delta and to the surrounding wetlands here in Cordova, Alaska. One of the ways we celebrate the great migration and importance of habitat preservation along the Pacific Flyway is with our Birds by Hand exhibit of handmade birds. We invite you to join the exhibit by sending a handmade bird to us here of any medium from wherever you are. We will tag your bird and include your bird story on our exhibit.

    Information on participating is on our Birds by Hand page HERE.

    We would love to have you or group of friends with a friend flock be a part of this special exhibit that is unveiled at our shorebird festival and kept hanging in our local museum gallery for the month of May.

    Birds need to be mailed to us by April 15.
    Thank you !!!
