Most just pass through during May on their way north\, but some stay here to have their babies. Because we only see them for a short time every year we forget how to quickly identify them. This presentation uses actual photographs to help group birds by appearance AND preferred habitat. See all the warblers with eye rings on one slide. Learn about behaviors like tail wagging\, skulking on the ground and walking along branches to help narrow down choices. You will learn to appreciate trilling\, buzzy and high-pitched songs to narrow down birds you hear but can’t see. We even send you home with a list of mnemonics like zay zay zay zoo zee (Black-throated Green Warbler). Approximately 1 – 1 ½ hours in length. \nPresented by Matt Valencic and Kelly Stanek \nRegister in advance for this meeting: \nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZUqcuGvrjIqHdwMUNsoMB-tTPsL7qS-qyFT \nAfter registering\, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting.
