Who We Are
Our Mission
Rocky Point Bird Observatory seeks to influence and inform ecological management practices and conservation of migratory birds in western North America through monitoring, scientific research and public education.
30 Years of Impact: Celebrating Rocky Point Bird Observatory’s Milestone Anniversary
2024 marked the 30th anniversary of Rocky Point Bird Observatory. Since 1994, RPBO has been a member of the Canadian Migration Monitoring Network (CMMN), gathering information on bird demographics and population trends over southern Vancouver Island and beyond.
Our 30th Anniversary was a time for reflection and gratitude. We are sincerely thankful for the loyalty and service of our volunteers, members, and staff and the generous support of our donors and grantors. Your efforts ensure our programs run efficiently and allow us to confidently look to the future. Our greatest asset is our people. Without their contributions, none of our accomplishments would have been possible.
