Audubon Bird Banding Demonstrations

Join Audubon and witness bird-banding, where experts capture, band, measure, and release songbirds I order to record their movement. Birds will be gently removed from tall “mist nets” set in the shrubby habitats on the grounds of the Environmental Education Center. The techniques of identifying, measuring, weighing, and banding the birds will be demonstrated before they are released. The migratory habits and life history of each captured species will be discussed. Register early.
