Firelands
Audubon’s “Birds of the Firelands” class may be just what you
are looking for!!
This
8-week short course begins on Thursday, April 1 and runs
through Thursday, May 20. We will meet each Thursday
evening at 7:00 p.m. in the Firelands room of Osborn
Park for classroom sessions and will have Saturday
morning field trips to area birding spots. Cost of the
class is just $40. The chapter offers the Mary Sue Young
scholarship to one or two participants each year if the
fee is a hardship.
The
instructor, once again will be Carol Andres, with help
from Sandy Burris and Sheryl Young. Topics covered in
these sessions include: basic bird ID, bird song,
migration, where to find birds and most importantly the
Saturday morning sessions in the field actually birding.
To register, e-mail Carol at
chickadee1956@yahoo.com or
call her at 419-639-3097. You can also register at the
first class.
Birding is the fastest growing hobby in the United
States, come join other birders and see what all the
fuss is about!
