Who are the Tampa Bay Snowbirds?

The annual migration of frozen northerners to Florida’s Gulf Coast isn’t exclusive to humans. All sorts of animals, including the Gray Jay – the National bird of Canada – a warmth-seeking, inner tube-relaxing, lacrosse-playing Gray Jay, migrate south during the winter months.

Relying on teamwork, coordination, and a shared sense of direction to navigate their journey, these Snowbirds find strength in their seasonal community.
