Description: Celebrating Houston’s special location along the central migratory flyway, the Night Owls and Real Films will co-host a screening of Winged Migration at the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston on April 17 at 7:00 PM. Houston Audubon’s Night Owls young professionals are hosting an after party at Café Brazil.

Winged Migration, an epic film that explores the mystery of migratory birds, presents an astonishing, aerial point of view of flocks’ journeys from locations around the world. Filmed over three years and spanning 40 countries, filmmakers flew alongside birds. Their story takes us from the Eiffel Tower to the Arctic and Amazon.

The screening is especially timely as, from March to May, thousands of birders from around the world visit the Houston area to see the huge number of birds passing through. Flying from their wintering grounds in Latin America to their spring nesting locations in North America, tired migrant birds take a break right on the Texas coast.

Tickets are $7 per person and can be purchased ahead of time or at the door. See The Museum of Fine Art Films webpage for ticket information.
