The Delta Marsh Bird Observatory provides opportunities for community engagement and education about birds and bird banding.
Delta Marsh Bird Observatory is primarily a volunteer-run organization. The community contributes to the citizen science database by participating in bird banding and bird observations.
Delta Marsh Bird Observatory (DMBO) has operated bird banding and related monitoring in Manitoba since 1992. DMBO is the only Manitoba-based station in the Canadian Migration Monitoring Network. We are an important contributor of regional data to national and international databases. DMBO monitor songbird population in Manitoba by using daily surveys and bird banding (mist netting) during migration. We have banded more than 50,000 songbirds of over 100 species. For our first 20 years, we banded along the ridge at Delta Marsh. In 2011, flooding and habitat loss forced us to find a new home. We are happy to now call the Oak Hammock Marsh Wildlife Management Area home.
