From Anna’s hummingbirds to bald eagles, the Garden is frequented by many species of birds. Join VanDusen’s long-time birding guide, Jeremy Gordon, for the basics on bird watching. He will discuss best birding resources such as binoculars and field guides, share tips on how to identify birds, and highlight hot birding spots in Vancouver. Following the one-hour indoor presentation, he will take the class out for a walk through the Garden to look for birds and put newly-learned ID skills to use. Dress for the weather and bring binoculars and a field guide if you have them.
