Maricopa County Parks and Recreation: Beginning Birding

Learn how to identify common desert and backyard birds with Ranger Eric. Join Ranger Eric at the Usery Nature Center back patio to watch birds around the feeders and learn bird identification basics, field guides and apps, and citizen science opportunities. Chairs and benches will be available and the area is also wheelchair accessible. We will have great views of common desert, migrant, and introduced city birds. Please bring binoculars if you have them, but some may be available to borrow at the Nature Center. MEETING LOCATION: Nature Center Limit 15 participants.
