Godwit Days is an annual birding festival held in Arcata to celebrate the Spring migration of the Marbled Godwit, a migratory shorebird. Godwit Days aims to celebrate the diverse bird species that migrate through the Pacific Flyway while fostering awareness about the importance of preserving their habitats. Since its original establishment in 1996, the organization has grown into a significant force for environmental education and community engagement, attracting bird enthusiasts, nature lovers and conservationists from around the globe to Humboldt County. Through guided birding trips, workshops and keynote speakers, Godwit Days continues to inspire a deeper connection to the natural world and a commitment to its protection.
