Learn the Who, How and Why of Winter Birds with LVAS VP, Barbara Malt

Join us on Zoom on Friday, Jan 31, 2025 at 7:00 pm Eastern Time (US and Canada) as LVAS Vice President Barbara Malt introduces the birds that winter with us here in eastern Pennsylvania.

We'll consider which birds migrate and which stay to brave the elements, and we'll discuss the adaptations that allow our wintering birds to get through the cold months. We'll also get to know some wintering species in your backyard and farther afield and how to identify them.

We hope you can join us.
