Winter Birding in the Lower Hudson

Program presented by Anne Swaim, Executive Director of Saw Mill River Audubon

What birds can we expect to see in the winter months at bird feeders and when we visit local parks and sanctuaries? How do birds adapt to winter weather? What winter bird sounds can we hear? Anne Swaim will explore these and other questions with many images and video clips of local birds in winter. Come tune up your eyes and ears for winter birding!
