Building Better Birders Workshop

Event Summary

Interested in birding? Already into birding and want to learn more? Join us at Twin Ponds Nature Center and Recreation Area for the third part of a four program series on Saturday, June 19th.   The Building Better Birders Workshop program, led by Kelly McKay, recently won the 2019 “Ding” Darling Environmental Education Award from the Iowa Association of Naturalists and the Iowa Conservation Education Coalition. We will have Kelly here to help you in your birding pursuits.

There will be multiple parts to the day’s programming: a bird hike from 6:30-9:30 A.M., a 30 species bird identification program (warblers) from 9:30-11:30 A.M., another program “Birding Internationally” from 12:30-2:00 P.M.,  and another bird hike from 2-4 P.M. Kelly will provide binoculars and field guides to use, and there is no charge for the hikes or the presentations. This program is funded by an Iowa REAP (Resource Enhancement and Protection) grant.
