National Bird Day

While many may not be aware that there is a National Bird Day, those fans of wild birds do know about this unofficial holiday. National Bird Day, celebrated January 5th, is a day to pay homage to the various species of birds in the world today. From migratory birds to captive birds to pretty much any bird found in the animal kingdom, birds are truly beautiful animals that regularly astound us with their grace and power of flight.

Bird lovers rejoice come January 5th. National Bird Day is their chance to truly show their avian awareness and talk about their knowledge of, well, birds.

So Many Beautiful Species of Birds

Historically, birds have been heralded for their beauty and their magnificent ability to fly. After all, humans tried for centuries to recreate this ability to fly until eventually inventing the airplane. You could say, the birds were our inspiration. On National Bird Day, what will you do to give some attention to birds?

A Serious Cause: The Exotic Bird Problem

National Bird Day is also about raising awareness where birds are concerned. There is a pet trade for example, that harms animals in the name of selling birds for profit. Thousands of parrots are debilitated in this illegal trade. This destructive bird trade needs to be stopped.  There are also cruel bird breeding mills. This is why National Bird Day is gaining in importance—so that we can help these delicate animals and thus prevent the suffering of birds.
