Join us for a bird watching walk and educational exploration of the birds at Alemany Farm in San Francisco!
Instructor: J.R. Blair
This IN-PERSON WORKSHOP will be hosted at Alemany Farm.
We will spend a couple of hours wandering around the Farm identifying and discussing the birds found there. In addition to bird "watching" we will spend some time talking about the intersection of birds and other organisms including humans - pollination, seed dispersal, conservation, introduced species, taxonomy, birding resources, etc.
Bring binoculars if you have them and any field guides you have.
J.R. Blair has been an active birder since the early 1980s. He was a lecturer of biology at San Francisco State from 1999 until the end of 2020 when he retired. Since 2010 he was the director of the Sierra Nevada Field Campus where he also teaches Birding 101 and Natural History of the Sierra Nevada. He has been volunteering at Alemany Farm since the summer of 2021.
Suggested Donation: $25; no one turned away for lack of funds. Our workshops are donation-based and support the growing and distribution of free produce at Alemany Farm. Please give at the suggested level or higher if it is available to you.
