A Seven-Part Introduction to the Art and Science of Birding Led by Maine Master Naturalist Christie Constantine
Are you curious about nature? Do you want to tune into the rhythms of the world around you? Birdwatching is an enjoyable, affordable, relaxing and endlessly rewarding way to connect more deeply with the outdoors. Whether you're a total beginner or looking to sharpen your skills, this fun and interactive seven-part series will introduce you to the tools, techniques, and wonders of birding - from spotting your first chickadee to recognizing warblers by their songs.
Each 2 hour class stands alone and can be taken independently. This series is geared toward adults and teens, will be classroom-based, and is open to all levels of birding experience.
