Feathered Friends at the Monterey Bay Aquarium

November 19 and 20, 2011

This page has all the events that took place in 2011. Bookmark this page and return to get information about 2012’s events.

Celebrate the weekend before Thanksgiving with all kinds of birds at the Monterey Bay Aquarium! Get in-depth information about the personal lives of the blackfooted and Magellanic penguins, a Laysan albatross, shorebirds, coastal birds and many more at "Feathered Friends" weekend.

Presentations will give you the inside dirt on how they live and what they eat — and special feeding shows will give you a visual demonstration of their dining habits. One lucky child will even get to pet a penguin as part of the "Meet the Penguin" program! Kids can indulge their avian-inspired creativity in the craft room.

All lectures and activities are included with paid admission to the Aquarium. For more information, see the Monterey Bay Aquarium's Event Calendar.
