Celebrate National Bird Feeding Month

Showings

Description

Fly over to the Whitaker Center with this program that is all about BIRDS! These workshops coincide with our newest film, Wings Over Water, and support further exploration of major themes. These programs are intended to encourage students to model the dynamics of ecosystems, creatively describe relationships between these magnificent birds and the landscape they navigate, and to better understand the ways in which they relate to each other. Students will also be able to consider their role in the natural world as citizen scientists, both as active participants and observers of nature.

Learn about safe bird feeding practices and craft your own bird feeder!  In this program we will learn how to identify common central PA songbirds in winter and collect bird population data to help ornithologists conserve Pennsylvania’s diverse bird population.

If you are planning on attending BOTH the documentary and the workshop, please report for the documentary beginning at 10am.  If you are attending the workshop only, please report at 10:45am.

***Science Center Admission is NOT included in the cost of the Workshop ticket.
