Join Ellis Nature Centre on Saturday, May 24 from 8-10am for an introductory birding experience! We will have 3 leaders who will show small groups of 6 people to 3 unique birding areas on our site. You will learn basic birding skills and how to apply them in each area of our site. Whether you’re just starting your birding journey or a seasoned pro wanting to refresh their skills, we’d love to have you. All ages welcome, the ability to walk and stand for the two hours is a must.
