*NEOTROPICAL SONGBIRDS OF THE CASCADE FOOTHILLS*

*With David Drummond*

Study those gorgeous migratory songbirds of the Cascade foothills with
David Drummond, wildlife biologist and birding specialist. This class
will focus on the *Flycatcher, Vireo and Wood Warbler* families that
spend the summer in our area. Mr. Drummond will discuss family
characteristics, taxonomy, identification marks, habitat, song,
behavioral ecology and home country. The full day field trip will visit
riparian areas along the South Fork of the Stillaguamish River in
Snohomish County where we hope to see at least 10 species in the above
families plus many other birds of the area.

David is known for his enthusiastic approach to bird identification and
student assistance. He has more than 20 years experience as a guide,
adventurer and instructor.
