About this Event

Join us for a FREE afternoon of ornithology and natural sciences in the Wagner Free Institute of Science's historic building and teaching garden.

Birdwatching requires a combination of skills: a watchful eye, a patient demeanor, and a working knowledge on what local birds look like, sound like, and where you might best find them. At this First Saturday Open House, be an ornithologist by practicing your bird watching skills in the Wagner’s Teaching Garden. Visitors can imitate bird calls and learn tips on how to accurately identify our flying friends. This is a perfect opportunity for folks to freshen up on their ornithology knowledge in preparation for Global Big Day, an annual celebration of birding to be held on the following Saturday.
