Louisiana Master Naturalists of Greater New Orleans

Fall Birding Basics Class - OLLI
Mondays - September 9, 16, 23, and 30 from 8am to 11 am at White Oak Estate and Gardens, 17660 George Oneal Rd, Baton Rouge, LA 70817

This class is designed for the beginning bird watcher. It will consist of 4 weekly sessions. In the first session, you will be introduced to binoculars and field guides and basic information about birdwatching. The following three weeks, we will go on bird walks around the property and identify as many birds as possible. Bird walks may last up to 2 hours (at a very leisurely pace) so mobility is required. After the bird walks, we will review what we've seen and discuss tips and tricks for identifying birds by sight and sound. During the last class, I will offer resources and information on where and how to use your new birding skills. Binoculars and field guides will be provided during the class sessions.

This class will be offered through the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI). Must be a member of OLLI. Fee will be charged.
