Description
We’re all familiar with the birds in our backyards, but you don’t have to venture too far afield to find the species that live hidden in other habitats. Do you want to learn what these species are and where to look for them? Join Michelle Campanis, education coordinator with the UT Arboretum, and Stephen Lyn Bales, naturalist/author, for the First Thursday Supper Club via Zoom on January 8, 7pm EST. In this "habitat hunting" program you’ll learn the amazing array of birdlife that lives and hides nearby your own yard. Prepare to be amazed!
We will explore those birds that prefer the open grasslands - meadowlarks, kestrels, and blue grosbeaks. Cuckoos, buntings, and great horned owls prefer the woodlands. If you are looking for ospreys, eagles, and herons, our abundance of lakes is where they reside. That uniquely odd devil-diver, the pied-billed grebe can be found during winter in lakes, rivers, and wetlands.
The class is free, but you must register to receive the Zoom link and a copy of the recording to watch at your own convenience. Closed captions are available. This program is cosponsored by the UT Arboretum Society (UTAS) and The American Museum of Science and Energy (AMSE).
