Le printemps est une période propice à l’observation des oiseaux c’est pourquoi depuis 1991, chaque année, la Baie de Somme célèbre l’oiseau, son habitant le mieux protégé, à l’occasion du Festival de l'Oiseau et de la Nature.

Le Festival est une manifestation grand public qui propose des activités pour toute la famille sur une période de 9 jours : sorties nature guidées, concours international de photo et de films, expositions, stages...

The Bird and Nature Festival (or Festival de l'Oiseau et de la Nature as it is known among French-speakers) is based in Abbeville, Bay of Somme in the North of France.

Created in 1991, the Bird and Nature Festival takes place every spring to celebrate birds in this well-preserved area. The Bay of Somme is a member of 'The Most Beautiful Bays in the World's Club'.
