Birding, Citizen Science, and the Great Backyard Bird Count
This fun and educational program is perfect for families and individuals who are new to birding, and wish to learn more about birding, the Great Backyard Bird Count, and citizen science. We will begin inside with a brief introduction to bird watching and the ideas behind citizen science projects. We'll share some bird books and tips for spotting birds in the wild. Then we'll bundle up and take a short walk around the library's green space to look for and count birds as part of the Great Backyard Bird Count.
All ages are welcome to attend and there will be a craft for children. Children are required to have adult supervision. A limited number of binoculars will be available for use.
