The 2018 New Zealand Bird Conference and the 79th Annual General Meeting of Birds New Zealand will be held in Paihia, Northland during the 2018 Queens Birthday Weekend. We look forward to welcoming you to the sunny Far North for what should be a fantastic weekend of birds and birding.

The conference will comprise two days of scientific papers and workshops,with field trips to local birding highlights on the third day. The AGM will be held on Saturday afternoon. The conference again aims to continue the fine work of previous conferences in making this the premier New Zealand event for the communication of new research findings on New Zealand birds while providing opportunity for discussion, networking and workshops for bird researchers and birders in New Zealand.

The format of the conference will be similar to the most recent conferences, with the first two days largely being devoted to scientific presentations. A variety of workshops are planned for the Sunday morning. There will be a number of local speakers sharing some of the latest research knowledge with you. Alongside this we look forward to bringing together researchers and society members from across the country to share their knowledge and findings to make for a dynamic and informative event.

Venue: Copthorne Hotel, Tau Henare Drive, Paihia, Waitangi, Bay of Islands.
