Chickadee Birders Club: Bird Banding in Uxbridge September 25, 2010

Join us for a memorable program of banding songbirds as they migrate south. You will learn about the banding process, the data collected, and how we fit into a nationwide network of banding stations. - - The Chickadee Birders Club at Drumlin Farm is for children ages 7-11 who have an interest in birds and want to learn more. We will introduce the basics of birding, bird life, and seasonal migration through talks, activities, and field trips. Birding is a lifelong skill that can lead to greater overall interest in the outdoors and the environment; it's never too early to get started learning the birding basics. Children are welcome to come to the club meetings alone, or to bring one adult with them.
