Birds of Whidbey Class
Description
Since 1998, the Whidbey Audubon Society has offered a course titled “The Birds of Whidbey” to our community. Taught by expert birders who are eager and skilled in sharing their knowledge and passion, students get both in-classroom and field trip opportunities to gain an understanding of the many birds who reside or migrate through Whidbey. While birds are the focus, students also learn about the complex environments of Whidbey and how to support or expand bird-friendly habitat.
The Birds of Whidbey Class is a 9-month program, from September to May, that covers all the birds most commonly found on Whidbey. Classes meet twice a month at the Fire & Rescue Station on Race Road, during evenings on the first and third Thursdays of the month. The program also includes at least one field trip per month held on Saturdays.
