April 24 @ 9:00 am - 11:00 am

Explore the diverse avian species of our area with our birding workshop led by Greenhouse and Gardens Intern Nayeli! Whether you’re a seasoned birder or just starting out, this workshop offers a fantastic opportunity to observe and learn about local birds. We will meet at the Mason Pond bridge and walk throughout campus, identifying birds and their calls/songs with a focus on endangered or vulnerable species. We will add our observations to the Spring 2024 Bioblitz project. What to bring: binoculars, a bird field guide (if you have one), comfortable walking shoes, and weather-appropriate attire.

Help to assess biodiversity at George Mason University while discovering the many different creatures that live on campus. Use your eyes and phone camera to record as many species as possible within the the dates March 15 to April 30, with a focus on endangered species.

Join our guest experts throughout the spring for ID workshops!

Sign up here to join the workshops. Also, add to the Bioblitz project on the iNaturalist app to record your findings.  Learn More about Bioblitz!
