There are over 10,000 species of birds in the world, each with their own incredible adaptations and ecological niches. Speaker Chip Darmstadt will take members on a visual tour of amazing creatures, from the exotic Sword-billed Hummingbird to Vermont’s state bird, the Hermit Thrush. You will explore how birds near and far adapt to their environments, navigate the challenge of migration and what you can do in your backyard to help our feathered friends. This event is open to the public.
