(For adults & teens) Birds are not only unique in how they look but how the behave! Picking up on their habits can take your birding to a whole new level. From feeding style to posture, we’ll explore the behaviors to look out for to help you come to an ID.

Participants will learn about the behaviors that make some birds quickly identifiable. We will not cover flight patterns or bird vocalizations. Learn more about these bird behavior in our other workshops: Flight and Sound & Call! This workshop will be classroom-based without a field component. Some prior birding knowledge is helpful but birders of all experience are welcome!
