Have you ever wondered why birds sing? Did you notice a landscape become silent when it should be bustling with bird activity? Songbirds are the alarm system of the forests, and
their vocalizations have meanings for other birds and mammals. Fall migration is a great time to key into their vocalizations before the winter season brings a quieter time period.
Join an educator from the Water Center to learn how to decipher the language of birds and understand the story they are broadcasting from the treetops. We will be mostly
outdoors, rain or shine. This class will introduce bird mapping and sit spots, so bring a small reusable plastic grocery bag for sitting on outside. Expect to walk one mile on uneven,
sandy or muddy terrain. Suitable for ages 10 and older. Please leave pets at home. Advance registration is required.
