7th Annual Birding Festival

This weekend, May 20 and 21, we will be hosting our 7th Annual Birding Festival here at the Discovery Center.  We are excited to offer a variety of activities and events, including Laura Erickson as our keynote speaker on Saturday.

KEYNOTE~ Laura Erickson is back with her presentation entitled "Migration from the Gulf to Wisconsin." From loons to hummingbirds, a host of migrating birds spend time in or over the Gulf of Mexico.  How has this BP oil spill affected them?

FRIDAY SPEAKER~ Local author and naturalist John Bates will be presenting "Spring Bird Migration in Wisconsin's Northwoods- A Phenology and Guide to Attracting Migrants."
