Wenatchee River Institute (WRI) and the North Central Washington (NCW) Audubon Society have integrated both virtual workshops and small, in-person birding field trips. Pick your preferred mode of transportation to search for birds: bike, boat, foot, or car. Volunteer guides will share their expertise, highlight different NCW landscapes, and meet a range of skill levels from beginning to advanced. Some of these trips include: Neighborhood Bird Walks, Birding Mountain Home Preserve, Birding Blewett Pass, Birding Boot Camp, Wandering for Woodpeckers, and Leavenworth Bike-N-Bird.
There is an event for everyone, even if you stay home! An At-Home Bird Watching Challenge will be occurring all weekend. This challenge will allow participants to look at birds in their own backyard, brush up on some bird identification, learn about new birds, plus the possibility of winning a prize! Want to learn how to landscape for wildlife? Or learn how to take better bird photos? What about learning about the facts, fiction, and mystery of owls? Tune into the virtual workshops!
