Nikon and The Brevard Nature Alliance present the 10th Annual Space Coast Birding & Wildlife Festival
January 24 - 28, 2007
Titusville, Florida

It is our honor to present what we consider to be the best Festival that we have had the privilege to assemble - from outstanding Keynote Presentations, Workshops, Field Trips, Art Competition and Exhibit Center to Socials, great food and enough down time to explore this area of paradise.

The 10th Annual Space Coast Birding & Wildlife Festival celebrates a "Decade of Dedication - 1997 to 2007" for ten years of promoting nature-based tourism and outdoor adventure opportunities on Florida's Space Coast. We welcome you and appreciate you sharing this landmark occasion with the Brevard Nature Alliance, sponsors, partners and volunteers. Moving the date from November to January positions the Festival from the last such event of the year to the first such event. Birds and wildlife are more abundant in January, the hurricane season that produces erratic wet weather is over and sites that were impossible to traverse in November are more accessible.

The Space Coast Birding & Wildlife Festival was created in 1997 to showcase the unique nature, wildlife, and technology in Brevard County. When a small group of volunteers met ten years ago to plan the concept of this event, the use of science and technology to benefit wildlife emerged as a central theme. Recent contributions of our international friends have added a completely new dimension. The list of worthwhile accomplishments is long and the collection of presenters and field trip leaders is a virtual Who's Who within the environmental community. The Festival is recognized nationally and internationally as one of the most prestigious birding and wildlife venues due to its exceptional line up of speakers and field trip leaders as well as the excellent location for viewing endangered animals and plant species.

Please take the time to visit the historic downtown areas of Titusville, Cocoa and Melbourne. Interesting shops, art and craft galleries and specialty restaurants await you. Take a leisurely walk through one of our many riverfront parks or enjoy the quiet of our inner-city refuge areas.

Thank you for choosing to come to the Space Coast Birding & Wildlife Festival. We hope you will have an enjoyable experience that will move you to return for many more visits.
