Birding with Rey
Our focus will be on birding by ear, getting acquainted with the unique songs and calls of our spring birds as well as their ID marks. The birds will ultimately decide our focus, however, and we will be flexible to what they have to offer. The pace will be slow and deliberate. We will make many stops and take time to ensure that everyone has a chance to see and/or hear the bird.
Beginners welcome!
Bring binoculars if you have them! If not, I’ll have a few extras to share. I’ll bring a scope as well.
Dress for the weather! Layers can be very helpful. A brimmed hat will help keep the sun out of your eyes and the rain off your binoculars.
