Birding workshop March 14

A free Birding Workshop and hike will be held from 8:30 a.m. - 12 p.m., on March 14 at Wallace State near Cameron. The Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) is hosting the free program with MDC conservation educator Adam Bransgaard will lead the hike and discuss bird species commonly spotted in winter, what natural habitats attract birds, and how to identify birds. Winter is a good time for birding, since the lack of foliage makes spotting them easier.
