The Great Backyard Bird Count with the Dickerson Park Zoo.
February 24, 10:30–11:30 a.m. in the Republic Branch Library Community Room.
Join the Library, Dickerson Park Zoo, and birders worldwide in participating in the Great Backyard Bird Count. Meet three ambassador birds from the Dickerson Park Zoo’s education department who will demonstrate avian characteristics in an up close and hands-on encounter.
Then, enjoy bird themed activities and practice bird counting with a bird scavenger hunt in the library.
The Republic Branch Library’s bird feeder station is a great place to birdwatch and is viewable from inside the branch or the north side of the parking lot. Be sure to pick up a bird-themed Library Takeout Kit while you’re there!
