Birds

Join NCBP member Tracy Feldman for a program at Durant Nature Preserve in Raleigh.

Description: Help us celebrate World Migratory Bird Day (coming later this month)! Although it is sometimes difficult to spot birds, many people enjoy birds for their songs. Birds sing for many reasons, and often it helps them if their songs are different from those of other birds. We will discuss ways we can identify birds and learn about birds by listening to their songs. Children must be accompanied by adults. Children and adults must register.

Cost: $5
