Learn about spring songbirds
Every spring our woods and meadows resound with a chorus of birdsong. Join bird enthusiast Jody Telfair for a three-session workshop to learn more about spring songbirds. This class can deepen the experience of the wonders of spring with beautiful bird photos and recordings of singing warblers, vireos, thrushes and other jewels of May. Many of these birds have journeyed many hundreds of miles from Central and South America to find and claim their breeding territory in our backyards and natural areas.
The course will explore the mysteries and challenges of migration, as well as the diverse nesting needs of a variety of birds which nest in Maine. The course will also focus on methods of songbird identification, including visual cues, behaviors, habitat and song.
The class will meet Monday, May 8, and Monday, May 15, from 6 to 8 p.m., at Midcoast Conservancy, 36 Water Street, in Wiscasset. On Saturday, May 20, the group will meet at Hidden Valley Nature Center in Jefferson for a field trip from 8 to 11 a.m.
