About the Birding Workshop:
Have you ever looked out the window and wondered what those little brown birds hopping around on the gravel are up to? Or maybe you see a flash of golden yellow feathers up in the treetops, hear a cheery song, look up and poof! Whoever was there has seemingly disappeared, leaving you wondering WHO WAS THAT?

If this sounds like you this class is perfect for you. Welcome to Birding! This class is all about the practice of birding in an inclusive learning environment which emphasizes awareness, respect, curiosity and connection.

We will learn ways to practice expanding our awareness and lower our disturbance, allowing for greater access to birds in their environment. Birds are living rich, interesting lives and it is incredible to witness!
