-About the event
Skomer Autumn Migration is back in 2024 between Saturday 14th September and Tuesday 17th September.
Join expert local bird guide Dave Astins for a three-night stay on Skomer Island for autumn bird migration and maximise your chance of seeing real rarities - we never know what might turn up so definitely an event not to be missed!
The focus of the event is on bird identification and enjoying the island outside of the main season. This is also a chance to experience the largest Manx Shearwater colony in the world at night, when birds return to their burrows under cover of darkness. With 350,000 breeding pairs on Skomer, staying in the colony is one of the UK’s finest wildlife spectacles - in autumn, the chicks will all be fledging too.
