4-week online course (January 11, 18, 25, & February 8)

Instructor: Connie Sidles

Everybody knows a Mallard, right? And Northern Shovelers are those guys with big bills, while Buffleheads are the little black-and-white "rubber duckies." But do you *really* know your waterfowl, even the so-called easy ones? Can you identify each species by gender, in eclipse, in flight, and by voice? Western Washington is the winter home for more than three dozen different species of swans, geese, and ducks. It is possible to know them all, in all their guises. Let master birder Connie Sidles take you on a virtual journey through our state's waterways to discover the ins and outs of our winter waterfowl. If time allows, we may cover a couple more webbed species such as loons.

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

Pricing: $45 for PAS members, $60 for non-members
