Beginning to Bird - Nests

Description: Ijams Beginning to Bird helps you as you take or re-take your first steps into the world of bird watching. This month we are focusing on bird nests. Winter is the perfect time to find abandoned nests from the previous season. We will explore the different types of nests and spend time identifying our winter birds.

Directions: We will meet outside the Ijams Visitor Center on the main plaza

No walk-in’s will be accepted. Every participant must have a ticket. Children under 18 years must be accompanied by an adult
