FreeTHURSDAY, JULY 18
Slow Birding
7:00–8:30 PM
Joan E. Strassmann, Ph.D.Professor of Biology, Washington University in St. Louis and Author of Slow Birding
Sponsored by Jenkins Arboretum & Gardens + Tredyffrin Public Library’s Arbo-READ-um partnership
In the heart of migration, it is easy to jump from one bird to the next, tallying counts of warblers, vireos, tanagers, and thrushes with increasing speed. But there is another way to approach birding—through slow, quiet observation. Join Dr. Strassmann in getting to know the most common birds, not just by sight, but by behavior. Discover their unique stories and enrich your experiences of our most commonly seen birds.
