We've taken our popular Birding Insights workshops and expanded them even further!  Our newly updated Birding Insights: Intermediate Birding Skills program is a set of classes that span the gap between Denver Audubon’s Beginning Birdwatching Course and more advanced birding topics. This series is a set of six classes, with associated field trips, that cover most of the familiar birds of the Denver Metro Area, many of the habitats, and some of our best birding locations. Although the classes build on each other they are also designed as stand-alone classes, each focused on a specific set of birds, and do not need to be taken in order. So, you can take them all, or just those that interest you. You will learn key field marks for identification, habitat, range and behaviors to build on your birding skill set. Instructors: Audubon Master Birders Chris Gearhart and Natalie Vande Vuss.
