How do birds fly higher than humans can breathe?  How do birds stand on ice without having their feet freeze off? How do birds’ bones help them to fly? What bird is the fastest animal on the planet? Why are birds literally in a Class by themselves? And, how do people identify birds in the field? Please join us if you have ever wondered about any of these questions or have more of your own. We will have one classroom session followed by a half-day field trip where we can have fun identifying birds together.
A $5.00 per person user fee will be collected for use of the Arboretum.
