Urban Birding Festival offers free fun for everyone
The Urban Birding Festival, a free, fun celebration of birds and springtime on May 12 to 15 includes 19 nature walks at sites in St. Paul and around the metro area. A day-long Bird Expo on May 14 at Springbrook Nature Center in Fridley features bird exhibits, bird-banding demos and a lunchtime talk by Jan Dunlop, author of birder murder mysteries. The festival is designed for everyone—families with kids are especially welcome—and no previous experience is required. Just show up for any event that interests you. Check the St.Paul Audubon web site, www.urbanbirdingfestival.org , for a full schedule of events and maps to sites, many of them hidden gems in the metro area. ---- Join or Leave mou-net: http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=mou-net Archives: http://lists.umn.edu/archives/mou-net.html
