Birding Workshop

WhAT’s that bird?

Once again Hot Springs Village Audubon will offer a series of birding workshops, to be held the first four Wednesdays in March at the Coronado Center. Classes begin at 8:30 a.m. and finish around 11 a.m. The workshops begin with a classroom portion and then move outside, weather permitting, for field work. The first session covers bird feeders, birding resources such as bird guides and apps, and selecting and using binoculars.

MARCH 6, 13, 20 and 27, 2023

The following sessions will address basic bird identification skills. Attendance at all 4 sessions is desirable, but not necessary.

The fee for the four workshops is $40 for current HSVA members and $50 for nonmembers. Participation may be limited. Members have first priority if they enroll before February 1. The easiest way to enroll and pay is by going to hsvbirds.org.

The workshops are led by Jeri Garcia and Vic Prislipsky and begin with basics such as binoculars, bird guides/apps, our Village bird checklist, and everything you need to know about bird feeders. The following sessions address identifying birds and discussion about the birds you might find in the Village.

Participants should bring binoculars and field guides to all sessions, if they have them. Feel free to bring water bottles/coffee mugs.

CLASS SIZE IS LIMITED, SO DON'T WAIT TOO LONG.

You can register and pay for the class by credit card here!
