MDC Naturalist Jessie Ballard said the lack of bold breeding colors can make some birds difficult to identify in the winter.
“That is why we hope to help folks see different characteristics of Missouri’s winter birds during this program,” Ballard said. “Birdwatching during winter brings joy and discovery during a time when most of nature is taking a rest. That’s why it is fun to learn which birds are in your own backyard, neighborhood, or local conservation area.”
Staff at MDC facilities across the state are holding virtual and in-person programs throughout the year. A listing of these programs may be found at https://mdc.mo.gov/events.
