Description

2018 is the Year of the Bird, commemorating the 100th anniversary of the Migratory Bird Treaty Act. In recognition of this milestone, Marsh-Billings-Rockefeller National Historical Park is teaming up with the Vermont Center for Ecostudies to help you become a better birder! Join us for a lesson in late-autumn birding led by VCE’s Nathaniel Sharp, starting with an indoor presentation and ending with a bird walk through the park. Nathaniel will introduce us to fall/winter bird species, provide tips on how to use the eBird app for birding, and help us identify birds as he leads us through the bird walk. All ages and experience levels welcome!

This event is BYOB- Bring Your Own Binoculars! A limited number of pairs of binoculars will be available for loan. Please dress appropriately for extended outdoor activity. Co-sponsored by Vermont Coverts and the Vermont Woodlands Association.

Nathaniel Sharp is the Citizen Science Outreach Naturalist at the Vermont Center for Ecostudies. The Vermont Center for Ecostudies advances conservation of wildlife through research, monitoring, and citizen engagement. To learn more about their work visit vtecostudies.org.
