Connie Sidles, Master birder and long-time member of the Seattle Audubon Society, who lives in the neighborhood and serves on the Laurelhurst Community Club, is holding an on-line class on Little Brown Birds on June 3rd from 7-9pm.
Sidles has written four books about nature, focusing on nearby Montlake Fill, otherwise known as the Union Bay Natural Area at the Center for Urban Horticulture. Her most recent book, Forty-Six Views of Montlake Fill, includes poems and Sumi-e paintings about how to find joy in the connections we make with nature and with each other.
The price is $45 for North Cascades Audubon Chapter members and $60 for non-members.
The information says:
If you’ve been confused, amused, and otherwise disabused of the notion that you’ll ever be able to identify the Little Brown Jobs (also known as Little Brown Birds) that populate so many of our Northwest habitats, have no worries. Master Birder and nature author Connie Sidles will take you through the 50+ most look-alike LBJs of Washington State in five classes that will tune up your ID skills. The sparrows, finches, longspurs are a challenging but rewarding group of birds that are fun to ID precisely because they are so challenging.
This class is geared toward advanced beginners and intermediate birders but would be useful for all levels of expertise. She has written four books about nature, focusing on her favorite “backyard” Montlake Fill, otherwise known as the Union Bay Natural Area at the Center for Urban Horticulture on the UW campus. Her most recent book, Forty-Six Views of Montlake Fill, includes poems and Sumi-e paintings about how to find joy in the connections we make with nature and with each other.
The price is $45 for members, $60 for non-members. Discount Applies to North Cascades Audubon Chapter members.
