SUMMARY:Young Birders Club Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Please note: this program was rescheduled from 12/20. \nBirding is a great way to make new friends\, learn about the environment\, and get outdoors. Join our Young Birders Club! The Club meets at 10AM and is open to anyone ages 8 to 18 who is interested in learning about birds. Since Long Island has many great habitats that are home to a wide variety of species\, we concentrate on birding in local areas. \nPlease bring binoculars if you have them (we will have a few pairs to lend) and a field guide to birds of the eastern United States. If you don’t have a field guide\, we’ll have one here for you to use. \nClub Leader: Aidan Perkins\, Wildlife Biologist \nThis FREE program is for children and adults ages 8-18. Advanced reservations are required for all events. \n  \n Sign Up Here!\n
