Free Workshop!

Do you want to give all your students an experience in real science, even if you have little or no knowledge of birds? Would you like to reach people of all abilities and backgrounds? Join the Celebrate Urban Birds workshop! Urban Bird Studies invites educators, parents, and group leaders to a free workshop at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology on December 14, 2006. The workshop will prepare you to lead groups in ongoing Urban Bird Studies projects and in events for "Celebrate Urban Birds!" in May 2007.

For more information, visit www.urbanbirds.org or send email to urbanbirds@cornell.edu.

Everyone is welcome! Some need-based travel scholarships will be available for educators working in underserved communities.
