Each summer, children 7-16 years discover the joy of birding by participating in the class "Birding 101 for Kids." These introductory classes are designed to teach students the fundamentals of bird identification and at the same time give them a greater understanding of their local environment. Students will learn:

• How to use binoculars
• Bird identification with a strong focus on field marks
• Eat like a bird
• Make a bird feeder and sketch a bird or plant just like the famous ornithologist, James
Audubon
