Item Description

What's our favorite sign of springtime on the North Shore of Minnesota? The celebratory song of migrant birds announcing the change of seasons! Kiss the snow goodbye and join in the song and a morning bird walk with naturalist and Cook County resident Ann Russ. May and June are the perfect months to listen for warblers and learn a handful of bird songs and calls by ear. With a little instruction from Ann, you'll be able to identify new songs and enjoy a satisfying birding experience every time you step outdoors, with or without your binoculars!

In this morning walk you’ll enjoy the treasures of birding hotspots in Cook County, listening and watching for spring migrants. Ann will share tips and tricks for remembering bird songs. Bring your binoculars, but be prepared to listen to the birds.

Ann Russ has been a resident of Cook County, MN, since the 1980's. She has led numerous naturalist activities for all ages in all seasons and considers annual bird migrations one of life's joys. Harmony singing is another passion; her ability to spontaneously coax multiple harmony parts out of any size group, whether four or four hundred, is legendary! She is also an instructor at North House Folk School.

Item Special Note

Winning bidder will receive Ann's contact information and schedule the experience directly with her. Valid only for May or June 2016. Walk will take place in Cook County, MN.
