Birding Essentials: An Intro to eBird, Merlin, Bird Calls, and Local Birding Hotspots
Nature & Outdoors
Bird watching is a wonderful hobby that lets you enjoy the beauty of flying friends. It can, however, be challenging for both beginners and experienced birders. In this program, you will learn to use Merlin to identify birds by their sounds and explore local species through eBird. The instructor will share ways to recognize bird calls and improve your listening skills. We will then discuss bird migration patterns and find the local birding hotspots of the season. If the weather permits, we can step outside to apply what we learn immediately. Please download the eBird and Merlin apps on your phone before the class if you plan to use them. This program is suitable for anyone who wants to know more about birding. Coffee and light refreshment will be available for the talk.

Newhouse Wildlife Rescue Presents: Nibi the Beaver & Stanley the Groundhog
Family Fun
Join a live wildlife talk with Jane Newhouse, founder of Newhouse Wildlife Rescue, and meet Nibi the beaver and Stanley the groundhog! Newhouse Wildlife Rescue is a rehabilitation facility for injured and orphaned wildlife in Chelmsford, Massachusetts. With the company of Nibi and Stanley, Jane will discuss how wildlife is rescued and cared for in the rehabilitation facility. You will learn the dos and don’ts of helping injured and orphaned wild animals in emergencies, how humans can coexist with wild animals in our community, and gain awareness, love, and respect for wildlife. Bring your questions! Nibi, the celebrity beaver, was rescued in 2022 after being found alone on the side of the road as a one-week-old. The state later determined that Nibi was healthy and should be released. Petitions, social media outcries, and court battles ensued to keep her safe in rehab. The story was reported by The New York Times, The Washington Post, “Today Show,” the BBC, and beyond. Finally, with the intervention of Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey, Nibi was granted a permit to stay with Newhouse as an educational ambassador. **Children must be accompanied by a paying adult.** **All proceeds benefit the Prescott Community Center.**
