Summertime…and the living is easy–unless you’re a bird busy with nesting chores and the many challenges of raising young. That means summertime can be a more difficult period for nature lovers to encounter birds as they quiet down and move around with greater stealth. Still, there is lots to observe, discuss, and enjoy on a summer birding walk so we’re offering this series for beginning to mid-level birders. When the series begins, breeding bird activity will still be ongoing, but as summer moves into late July and August, the movement of southbound migrants will be underway. Expect some open and sunny field conditions at all of our locations. There will be chances, however, to duck into the shade periodically.  REGISTER
