Watch the video for a replay of Backyard Birds in Winter, presented by Ken Wiersema on December 6, 2025. This program explores how birds adapt to the challenges of the season in our unique Olympic Peninsula habitat. From winter identification tips and bird sounds to practical ways you can support feathered visitors with food, water, and shelter, the presentation offers insights for both new and experienced birders. You’ll also learn about brush piles, roost boxes, and how to take part in the annual Christmas Bird Counts—whether from your own backyard or out in the field.
