Bird Identification is topic for December Audubon meeting
The December monthly meeting on Thursday, December 17, will be the traditional Bird Identification program. This is a popular program and is great for both beginners and veterans of birding. It is a wonderful way to get ready to participate in the upcoming Christmas Bird count scheduled for Saturday, December 19, 2015.

The Bird Identification program, presented by local photographer and naturalist, Brad Barnwell, is a great way to learn about the common and not so common birds of Lake County, especially if you are planning to participate in the Bird Count. Even if you are not participating in the bird count, learning about common birds is very fun and gratifying.
