Want to try birdwatching but aren’t sure how to get started? Join us for a laid-back program for ages 8+ where you’ll learn the basics of identifying common birds! We will slowly walk about a mile to look for birds in different areas. We will learn about collaborative science projects to which we can contribute our birdwatching data.
