Want to begin bird watching but don’t know where to start? March is the perfect time to dip your beak into this fulfilling, lifelong hobby. Pam Newitt, Preserve naturalist, educator and ornithological enthusiast, will guide us around the Preserve. Using some of our familiar feathered friends as examples, we will learn the basics of field identification through both visual and behavioral cues. This program will help you prepare for the spring migration as returning birds make their way north from warmer wintering grounds. Bring binoculars if you have them, comfortable shoes and dress for the weather. We will begin at the Preserve Visitor Center with some light refreshments, including bagels, and become familiar with birding basics before heading out into the field.
Pam Newitt has a B.S. in wildlife conservation from the University of Maryland, has been a professional interpretive naturalist since 1989 and is a long-time active presence at the Preserve. She loves walking woodland trails, looking up for birds and down at wildflowers.
