Spring Migration Celebration

Celebrate the arrival of our spring migrants in late April at Creamer’s Field Migratory Waterfowl Refuge in Fairbanks, Alaska, from 12 pm to 4 pm. A visit during this time ensures great viewing opportunities for Trumpeter Swans, Canada Geese, White-fronted Geese, and various species of ducks. Activities include birdwatching & wildlife viewing, guided nature walks, falconry demonstrations, and crafts for school-aged children.

Creamer’s Field Migratory Waterfowl Refuge comprises approximately 2,200 acres of fields, woods, and wetlands in the Fairbanks North Star Borough. The front field area and the Alaska Department of Fish and Game Buildings are located on the northern edge of the city of Fairbanks. Friends of Creamer’s Field works collaboratively with the Alaska Department of Fish & Game (ADFG) and other community partners to deliver education programs at Creamer’s Field Migratory Waterfowl Refuge. We operate out of the Farmhouse Visitor Center, the original Creamer family farmhouse (circa 1908), which features interpretive exhibits on migratory birds and the historic dairy complex.
