Description

In the fall, birds, butterflies, and dragon-flies migrate through the Delaware Valley. We’ll learn how to identify species such as hawks, warblers, flycatchers, and monarch butterflies using the field marks system. You’ll learn to identify these migrants by sight, sound, and behavior. The class will visit two local hotspots to see this migration in action.
