SUMMARY:Birding Without Borders: An Epic World Big Year
DESCRIPTION:  \n\nIn 2015\, bird nerd Noah Strycker of Oregon became the first human to see more than half of the planet’s bird species in a single\, year-long\, round-the-world birding trip. Anything could have happened\, and a lot did. He was scourged by blood-sucking leeches\, suffered fevers and sleep deprivation\, survived airline snafus and car breakdowns and mudslides and torrential floods\, skirted war zones\, and had the time of his life. Birding on seven continents and carrying only a pack on his back\, Strycker enlisted the enthusiastic support of local birders to tick more than 6\,000 species\, including Adelie Penguins in Antarctica\, a Harpy Eagle in Brazil\, a Spoon-billed Sandpiper in Thailand\, and a Green-breasted Pitta in Uganda. He shared the adventure in real time on his daily blog (audubon.org/noah)\, and now he reveals the inside story. This humorous and inspiring presentation about Strycker’s epic World Big Year will leave you with a new appreciation for the birds and birders of the world.

SUMMARY:Sun Print Workshop Sunday July 16  2 pm
DESCRIPTION:Join us to learn about the principles of photography and then make a sun print to take home!  Kids will explore how light can transform the Sunprint paper similar to photography.  The blue molecules embedded in the paper are sensitive to ultra-violet light. We will arrange objects onto the 4″x4″ Sunprint paper indoors.  We will then take it outside & lay it out to expose the paper.  The areas of the paper exposed to the sun will fade from blue to white (2-5 minutes).   We will then rinse the paper in water & whatever was not exposed will washout & be white.  A piece of art is created.  For ages 5+

SUMMARY:Nature Journals 101: Explore the natural world of Lithia Park and create a nature journal of your observations
DESCRIPTION:Create your first nature journal! Many important scientists\, naturalists\, and philosophers such as Charles Darwin\, Henry David Thoreau\, Ralph Waldo Emerson\, Aldo Leopold\, Rachel Carson\, and John Muir were all known for keeping journals of their observations\, poems\, and discoveries. On Sunday June 4th\, at 2 pm we’ll meet at the Northwest Nature Shop and then walk over to Lithia Park to observe the natural world around us and then record what we hear\, smell\, see\, and feel. Nature journaling teaches children to become keen observers of the natural world by drawing and writing about plants and animals in the field.  Keeping a nature journal develops the most important science process skills; observation and documentation. Christy Chow will lead this class for children 5 and older. $5 per child/parent participant.  Pre-register at the NW Nature Shop 541-482-3241.
