The Beginners Bird Walk began with an introduction to ethical birding, an overview of fall migration, and a preview of the species we might encounter. From there, we headed to the Pool, where we practiced spotting birds and describing their locations to others. As we continued along, we observed a variety of birds while learning how to distinguish between males and females and how to identify different species. It was a beautiful and educational day.
