Adding Curriculum to Your Bird Walk

Monday, September 14, 2020 • Duration 58:22

There's leaves crunching underfoot and fog in the air...that means school is just about in session! However, in 2020 many students are returning to a virtual classroom, which means more time spent in front of a computer and less time outside.

So listen in and learn how you can mesh school and birding!

Introducing... The Birding Co-op

Season 3 · Episode 5

Thursday, August 27, 2020 • Duration 01:00:58

Hannah and Erik have spent the last few months working on a secret project with a handful of other young birders whose goals are to offer affordable travel experiences, benefit communities and non-profit partners, and build a supportive, inclusive community.

This episode is a bit different than all of our other episodes... we did not go on an adventure or talk specifically about birds with anyone. What we did do is chat with The Birding Co-op planning committee to discuss this brand new, non-profit organization seeking to change the way we look at birding travel and the birding community.
