INCOMING: Pori’s Summer Residents

17 March 2026 – 27 September 2026

Did you know that Pori is the most bird-rich area in Finland? The exhibition Summer Residents of Pori showcases migratory birds that can even be spotted in the city. Created in collaboration with the Pori Birdwatching Association (PLY), this photo exhibition highlights the current state of birdlife in the region through selected species. The featured birds are typical of Pori and Satakunta – including Pori’s own city bird, the rook.

You can search for these birds elsewhere in the museum. In addition, you can learn to recognize different species and their key features with coloring pages designed especially for this exhibition.

The exhibition was produced in collaboration with Porin Lintutieteellinen Yhdistys (Pori’s local ornithological association).
