———

5-week online course (March 3, 10, 17, 24, & 31)

The neotropical arrivals will be streaming into our state as soon as spring arrives. In fact, all across the continent, billions of passerines from Central and South America are coming to breed. They all will be in their brightest spring plumage - living jewels that have each made this arduous journey on their own, driven by the need to nest. If you've been overwhelmed by the sheer numbers of species that swell our year-round avian populations, then this class is for you. Come hear Connie Sidles explain how to ID warblers, vireos, flycatchers, kingbirds, shrikes, swallows, swifts, nightjars, and (if time allows) hummingbirds. They are here for only a short time, and then they leave us in late summer and fall, emptying our skies for another year.

Class will be conducted over Zoom (and recorded if you cannot make the live session)
