The following description comes from the event organizer.
Two hours of guided birding through the garden before it opens to the public. Our focus will be on birding by ear, getting acquainted with the unique songs and calls of our spring birds as well as their ID marks. The birds will ultimately decide our focus, however, and we will be flexible to what they have to offer.The pace will be slow and deliberate. We will make many stops and take time to ensure that everyone has a chance to see and/or hear the bird.
Beginners welcome! Class limited to 14 participants.
Program Details:
-
We’ll meet just inside the gate at 8 am to circle up and say our hellos. Then, we’ll venture into the garden together as a group.
-
Bring binoculars if you have them! If not, I’ll have a few extras to share. I’ll bring a scope as well.
-
Dress for the weather. Layers can be very helpful. A brimmed hat will help keep the sun out of your eyes and the rain off your binoculars.
