Early Morning Birds: Tuesdays in May, 7 – 8:30 a.m. Spring brings a variety of birds to Stony Brook as migrants begin their journey back from the south. Take a morning stroll with Doug Williams and/or Jack Lash in search of migrants and the other wonderful creatures of the area. Nature lovers of all levels are welcome!

Our objectives will be to learn the skills to identify the birds on sight, to recognize the association between birds and their preferred habitat, to hone our skills of observation and finally to learn to recognize birds by their calls and songs. No experience necessary, just a bit of interest and enthusiasm. Each class will start with a 30 - 40 minute birding session outside in various habitats. A portion of the final class will focus on optics, guidebooks, and some reliable birding destinations.
