Western CT Bird Club Monthly Meeting: How to Bird by Tree

Who:    Ken Elkins, Director of the Connecticut Audubon Society’s Coastal Center at Milford Point.  Ken is a former President of the Connecticut Ornithological Association and was education Program Manager at the Audubon Center at the Bent of the River in Southbury.  He created a nationally-recognized therapeutic program called “Bird Tales” which uses birds to engage people with dementia.  Description:  We’ll learn to identify some of the trees and shrubs of our area with an interesting connection to birding.  Some birds and trees have unique relationships that you may not find in a field guide, but these patterns will help you find some of our most sought-after birds if you’ve taken a moment to read the leaves.

Free and open to the public
