Saturday, May 1 Roxborough State Park
Leader: Alison Kondler, 303-904-9140. Meet leader at the Visitor Center
at 8 a.m. Trip will go to 12:00 Noon. One of the more difficult aspects of
birding is learning bird sounds. Luckily you don't have to rely on just your
auditory memory to “tune- in” to the songs and calls of birds. This 4
hour program will teach you how
to hear with your eyes. Fun techniques including, ways to observe the
bird, visual clues, diagnostic sounds, creative mnemonics, comparative ideas
and personalizing your interpretation. We'll start indoors with a fantastic
presentation, then head outdoors to listen and observe the birds on an easy
2 mile walk. Novice to expert birders
