NSAS Beginning Birding Workshop: Feathers!
Birds are the only living things that have feathers. Humans have a long history of fascination with feathers, using them as decorations, in our bedding, and as inspiration for developing the airplane. During this workshop we will explore a little of this history, as well as discuss all of the functions a feather has for birds, some will completely surprise you! We will then go for a walk in the wetlands. Bring Binoculars if you have them, I will have a few pairs to loan out.
The workshop will start at 9:00a.m. followed by a walk at 9:30 a.m. until noon. Walks are appropriate for all ages (children must be accompanied by an adult).
