Hi Birders and Banders,

The Vancouver Avian Research Centre has just posted dates for a single Bird Monitoring and Banding Workshop on May 6th - 8th. Due to our many other commitments this year this is likely to be the only VARC workshop offered this spring!

The Bird Monitoring and Banding Workshop is designed for people with little or no bird banding or bird in the hand experience and provides a fantastic opportunity to see birds up close and personal, to learn about their plumage, molt sequences and life habits.
Most of all, these workshops are designed to be a fun and interesting experience and a way to take your interest in birds to the next level. See what people who have attended the workshops have to say and why the average rating from course participants is 9.5 out of 10!!
