The series of classes, hosted by members of the Olympic Peninsula Audubon Society, is intended for residents of this area who are interested in knowing more about birds seen locally each season of the year and learning how to develop good habitats for wild birds.

“Backyard Birding” can be taken either as individual classes or in a series. The cost of each session is $5 and is free for anyone under 18.

After the completion of five sessions, participants will be offered free membership in OPAS for one year.

The next class will be “Winter Bird Care and Feeding”, from 10 a.m.-noon Saturday, Dec. 5, at the Dungeness River Audubon Center. Christy Lassen of Wild Birds Unlimited will be the presenter.
