Event Summary:
Learn from a teacher, who makes the identification of birds logical and practical for birders of all levels.
Event Description:
The identification of North American flycatchers can be a daunting challenge for even the most seasoned birder. The Field Guides to North American Flycatchers take bird identification to an entirely new level by training readers to observe subtle differences in structure, color patterns, and vocalizations before delving into the finer details of a particular species. Dr. Lee tells us what to look for and how to see it and apply it to our bird ID toolkit.
Join us, as we have the privilege to learn from a gifted teacher, who makes the identification of birds logical and practical for birders of all levels.
