Birding Basics: Birding in the U.P.

Sunday, April 12 at 2:00 P.M. 

If you’re curious about nature and want to learn more about what’s around you, birding is a great skill and a fun hobby. There are many great reasons to get into birding: it is low-cost; you can bird anywhere, anytime; a rewarding experience to discover something new; and can also be a fun, family activity. 

An introduction to binocular use and field guides will begin the program, followed by some taxonomy, bird ranges, and learn what is so special about birding in the U.P. and how birding can benefit both people and birds. Suggested age: 10 years and up.
