OPAS Backyard Birding: “Sounds of Spring”

Description

Presenters: Dow Lambert & Ken Wiersema Saturday, April 5, 2025 10:00 a.m. – 12:00 noon Rainshadow Hall at Dungeness River Nature Center Suggested donation: $5 Each April, we enjoy and welcome our Backyard Birding program “Sounds of Spring.” This program features the audio and video recordings of veteran birder and photographer Dow Lambert, with the assistance of Ken Wiersema. Dow’s excellent local photos, as well as his sound and video recordings, will refresh and renew your knowledge of the bird songs and calls of spring heard throughout our local yards, fields, forests, and shores. New recordings and photos are added each year along with favorites from previous programs. Dow and Ken will review how to access and use a free Merlin Sound ID app offered by the Cornell Ornithology Lab. Please join us for the fun of this popular, refreshing annual program. Come and experience the energy and color that birds offer us during their spring mating and nesting season. Admission to Backyard Birding programs is free. However, we suggest a donation of $5.00 per person to support our ongoing education and bird conservation programs. For your good health as well as that of other attendees and our volunteer staff, please be aware of the latest COVID-19 health precautions as recommended by Clallam County Public Health and the Jamestown S’Klallam Tribe. ** Please note the following scheduling change to the OPAS Events Calendar: Backyard Birding, previously announced for May 3rd, has been rescheduled to April 26th.
