This program will also introduce you to a new community science opportunity BNRC is launching, Cornell Lab of Ornithology’s Celebrate Urban Birds (CUBs). People new to birding are welcome at this event, as well as young people ages 12 and up. This event was made possible through our partnership with the City of Pittsfield.

Dogs not allowed: Please leave your four-legged friends at home for this walk to maximize our chance of seeing birds.
