Audubon Mid-Atlantic is offering three Intro to Birding workshops dedicated to Winter Birds. You may think that winter and cold weather is not an ideal time to birdwatch. But here in the Mid-Atlantic region, our waterways come to life in the winter as ducks from further north come south looking for open water. Amazing species that can only be found in the winter like to make our reservoir a home away from home. Join Damien Ruffner as he teaches you the in's and out's of birding. What equipment do you need? Where can you get started? Are there groups like me out there that can support me as I begin my birding adventure? We'll answer all these questions and more during these exciting workshops!

Workshops begin at 8am, 10am, and 1pm. Bring binoculars if you have them, but some will be available for loan on site. No birding experience necessary. These workshops are recommended for ages 7 and up, with adult supervision for those under 12. Expect to spend about 45 minutes inside learning with Damien and about 45 minutes outside walking along our trail and up to the observation tower. Dress for the weather!
