The National Aviary in Pittsburgh

Robert S. Mulvihill

The National Aviary in Pittsburgh Does Bird Conservation Around the World. Formally designated as the “National” Aviary by an act of Congress signed into law by President Bill Clinton in 1993, the National Aviary was first established as a local Conservatory-Aviary in 1952. For more than 70 years the facility has pursued its mission to “Inspire respect for nature through an appreciation of birds.” In addition to serving as a popular recreation and education destination, the National Aviary pursues important bird conservation work around the world. Ornithologist, Bob Mulvihill, will give us a look behind the scenes at some of the National Aviary’s ground-breaking contributions to bird conservation efforts, from Louisiana to the Dominican Republic, Ecuador, South Africa, Guam, and right back here in Pennsylvania, too.
