SUMMARY:Bird Banding
DESCRIPTION:Bird Banding (All)\nPavilion on west side of ACNC property \nSaturdays\, April 25\, May 2\, May 9\, and May 16\, 2026\n7:00 – 11:00 a.m. \nNo reservations required. \nJoin ornithologists on the west side of ACNC on Saturday mornings April 25 through May 16\, weather permitting. Watch how they capture migrating and resident birds\, fit them with identification bands\, measure\, weigh\, and then release them. \nBird banding is an established technique used to discover details about the behaviors of birds. You can drop in any time between 7:00 a.m. and 11:00 a.m. to learn from the ornithologists exactly how it is done and why. If weather is too harsh for the safety of the birds\, the nets are not opened and an alternate date is chosen. \nSpecial Information: This program is open-house style. If the weather is inclement\, the nets are not opened. No dogs. \nBird banding gives participants an up close look at birds and science in action. You can participate on four Saturdays at Audubon on April 25\, May 2\, 9\, and 16.
