The 10th Annual Wildlife Festival will celebrate the importance of the Montezuma Wetlands Complex for birds that migrate thousands of miles along the Atlantic Flyway. The Montezuma Wetlands Complex is a globally significant Important Bird Area that serves as a vital rest stop for hundreds of thousands of waterfowl and dozens of Bald Eagles. The Wildlife Festival is an opportunity for people of all ages to explore and celebrate the birds and habitats of this dynamic ecosystem and interact with a variety of vendors and exhibitors from across New York State. Highlights at the Wildlife Festival will be live animal presentations, delicious food, live music, children's games and prizes, a huge bounce house, crafts and activities, family-friendly entertainment, guided bird watching hikes and canoe trips, a native plant sale, and over 40 vendors and exhibitors. Fee: under 5 free, $3/child 5 and older, $5/adult.
