Experience Bird Migration Together

Hi, I'm Kelly: Community Curator and Fellow Birder.

I’m the founder of Follow the Birds, a global movement devoted to connecting birders through story, migration, and meaning.

I’ve spent years traveling—guiding groups to Africa and living for a time in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Only recently did I begin seeing these places through the eyes of a birder. Now, I’m eager to revisit them—not just by memory, but by following the flight paths of birds that bridge these worlds.

The Bird Migration Gathering and Birders Hub grew from a simple realization:

The birds are telling a global story. And so are we.

Together, we create a space where birders share what they’re noticing—across flyways, places, and seasons.

Stories in Flight is how this work continues—slowly, seasonally, and in shared attention.
