Today was the Walk in the Wild: International Migratory Bird Day (IMBD) Celebration out at Walden Ponds which the Wildbird Company helps sponsor. We started the morning like always, leaving the store and heading out bird watching. After an hour, I had to return to the store to retrieve the coffee for IMBD while the rest of the group continued bird watching and then met me at Walden Ponds. It was a great morning of teaching about and celebrating migratory birds. Thanks to all those that participated and helped at IMBD, and especially to Environment for the Americas for hosting the event.
