After a long hiatus, the Backyard Birding program returns! Presented by the Olympic Peninsula Audubon Society (OPAS), the eight-part 2022-23 series will feature information on wild bird identification, biology, feeding, nesting, and habitat in our region. The classes are suited for folks new to birding and to our region as well as those who wish to hone their bird knowledge and skills.

Christie Lassen

Presenting first in the series will be Christie Lassen to discuss general bird feeding methods—including types of feeders and various foods formulated to attract specific birds. Find out about the special needs of the Anna’s Hummingbird and other species that make the Pacific Northwest a yearlong home. Learn how to promote healthy, thriving bird populations while discouraging unwelcome mammals!
