Hello, Please help us spread the word! The Cornell Lab of Ornithology is celebrating the reopening of its newly redesigned Visitor Center with a free event, to be held Sept. 14 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. The event – which will also include a special edition of the annual Migration Celebration – will kick off with a ribbon-cutting at 10:15 a.m. In the Visitor Center. The celebration schedule includes guided trail walks, bird-banding demonstrations and live birds of prey from the Cornell Raptor Program<https://blogs.cornell.edu/raptors/>.<https://blogs.cornell.edu/raptors/> Visitors can learn about birds in Native American culture with dynamic Haudenosaunee storyteller Perry Ground. There will be workshops devoted to native plants; tips on choosing binoculars; and DIY projects that help make windows safe for birds by preventing collisions. At the new sound table in the Adelson Family Bird Discovery Lab, visitors can touch animal images floating by at any of the headphone stations to get playlists or single sounds of birds, mammals, insects and other creatures. The complete schedule<https://www.birds.cornell.edu/home/visit/visitor-center-reopening-celebration/#schedule> for the celebration is available on Visitor Center website. We hope to see you there!
