Shorebirds are one of the most difficult group of birds to identify and The Arboretum, University of Guelph, is presenting a Shorebirds workshop on July 21 from 9am to 4pm to help with this identification.
Using plumage, shape, size, calls and behaviour, participants will try to figure out all of those confusing sandpipers, plovers, phalaropes, turnstones, knots, godwits and whimbrels. The workshop will be led by naturalist Chris Earley.
The fee is $75 per adult and the registration deadline is July 7.
For more info. call The Arboretum at 519-824-4120 extension 52358.
