Description
A focus on neotropical migrant birds with consideration of their natural history, identification, and migratory patterns. Students learn orientation and theory in the classroom. Location, identification, and discussion of species are studied in the field (Hawk Mountain Sanctuary and surrounding area). The course meets one weekend in late April or early May.
All Hawk Mountain courses are held regardless of weather conditions and require outdoor fieldwork and hiking on rugged terrain. Appropriate clothing and footgear are recommended. Students must provide their own transportation to the Hawk Mountain Sanctuary in Kempton, PA. Unless otherwise stated, classes are held at the Acopian Center for Conservation Learning (ACCL) at Hawk Mountain.
