Intro to Slow Birding ~ ONLINE


This online 5-week course will guide you in developing an alternative approach to birding; a practice that will allow you to enhance your birding skills by birding in place. Bird Diva, Bridget Butler, will facilitate a series of weekly sessions through customized email provocations (4), a private Facebook group, and live video conferencing calls (5). During this workshop, you’ll learn how to start a Sit Spot practice, enhance your observation skills, and deepen your connection to the birds right outside your door. Runs for four weeks starting March 4th and ending April 4th. Dates for discussions are Mondays, March 7th, 14th, 21st, 28th, and April 4th at 6:30 pm EST.

I really enjoyed the Slow Birding course. Bridget is a wonderful teacher who conveys her knowledge and love of birding in easy-going, humorous, and super-informative sessions. I learned a lot from the online classes about how to better observe and listen to birds. Best of all, the course provided us with tools – both food for thought as well as online and written resources — for continued learning and improving our birding skills.
