There’s a lot to look forward to in spring, including the welcomed cacophony of breeding birds. The sheer volume of songs and calls can often feel overwhelming for beginning birders, but these sounds offer an opportunity and a challenge, as well as insight into the lives of these feathered friends. Join us for a birding-by-ear workshop where you can learn how to better identify birds through their vocalizations or brush up on your skills if you’ve gotten a little rusty since last spring. This event will be held in person at our Center but will transition to a virtual presentation via Zoom if necessary due to local COVID 19 infection rates and National Audubon Society Policy.

After the presentation, we will head out for a leisurely walk along the trails at Montezuma Audubon Center to put your new skills to the test!

Please note: Meet at Montezuma Audubon Center (2295 State Route 89, Savannah, NY). Please plan to arrive 15 minutes early to use the restroom and check-in. The workshop will promptly begin at 2 p.m.
