Birding 101
May 20, 2018 @ 4:00 pm - 5:30 pm
Have you wanted to learn how to become a “birder” but have never really known where to start? This is your chance to learn introductory birding skills in the classroom. Petoskey Regional Audubon Society President Darrell Lawson will teach an introduction to birding class at the Boyne District Library and then, weather permitting, the group will head to a nearby park to listen and look for migrating and resident birds. We will cover field guide choose and use a field guide, how to select and then get the best performance from your binoculars, tips for learning bird vocalizations, and identification pitfalls and how to avoid them. Bring your own binoculars if you have them, but loaner binoculars will be made available if you do not.
