Join ornithologist Dr. Neil Bernstein at Amazing Space for a special bird banding program. Be our guest and drop in anytime to watch Dr. Bernstein net, band, and release birds from Nature Center property.
You’ll get a chance to see the equipment he uses, observe the banding process, and learn about the importance of banding. You’ll also get an up-close look at the birds! Children and families are welcome to join in on the fun. Banding is a weather-dependent activity.
All banding, marking, and sampling is being conducted under a federally authorized Bird Banding Permit issued by the U.S. Geological Survey.
This program is free and open to the public with no registration required; free will donations to the Nature Center are welcome.
