Winter Backyard Birding @ Connecticut Audubon Society Center at Fairfield

The Connecticut Audubon Society Center at Fairfield is hosting Winter Backyard Birding on Saturday, December 9 from 10 a.m. to 11 a.m. that is perfect for kids 12 years old and up and, best of all, it's a free event!  Guests will meet at the Connecticut Audubon Society’s Center at Fairfield Nature Store, 2325 Burr St. 



As many of us that love birding and wildlife know, the rewards of birding can be enjoyed all year long, but the coldest months can be some of the hottest times to view feathered visitors. The Connecticut Audubon Society Center at Fairfield invites guests to join long-time birder and naturalist Dick Worth at the Connecticut Audubon Society Center at Fairfield for an indoor program to learn more about this great family activity which can start at home, and lead to a life-long appreciation and interest that spans the world.

Backyard birding begins at the feeder so you’ll learn who is at their feeder this time of year, their characteristics, and their feeding habits. You’ll also receive tips on what kind of seed and feeders to use and other ways of creating a bird-friendly sanctuary that will attract birds to your yard.

After the class,  guests are invited to take advantage of the Audubon's  20% off sale on birdseed and birdfeeders and browse their store for unique, nature-themed holiday gifts and decorations. Call 203-259-6305, ext. 109 or visit their website for more information.
