Scintillating Shorebirds
This amazingly diverse group of several families are both Northwest resident and migrant from the High Arctic in fall passage. Join us to better learn their field ID, bio-ecology, micro-habitat associations, dispersal routes and behaviors. We will review different approaches to speciate and appreciate such intriguing and efficient organisms in two powerpoint-imaged discussions.
Then with binoculars and spotting scopes in hand, we will practice these skills along the shoreline on our Field Trip~ Don’t miss this fun and insightful experience!
