2.23.17 Birdwatching For Beginners - Cape Cod Museum of Natural History
Brewster, MA

February vacation can be an opportunity for folks of all ages to visit the museum and fortunately for me, sometimes they come to my presentation!  I was asked to present twice today and each group was so great!  Lots of questions and enthusiastic answers and interesting bird stories... and we had several birds (seen & heard) on our brief walks outside on this wildly warm February day!  It was in the 60's and it even smelled like spring when we were outside.  Being outside is the ultimate goal of birdwatching... what a day for it today! Thanks Bird Nerds! (double click photos to enlarge)
