Most of the species that we see in Hulls Gulch are “landbirds” – flycatchers, swallows, warblers, sparrows and blackbirds. We’ll look at some of the most common species that will be arriving and pass through over the next month. As always, we’ll spend some time on how to tell similar species apart. This will be about plumage, behavior, and other identification cues, except song. 

Location: Jim Hall Foothills Learning Center, 3188 Sunset Peak Rd, Boise, ID 83702, USA (map)

Registration: Optional. You can register through the City of Boise Parks and Rec website or by calling Fort Boise 208-608-7680.

This free birding program is great for experienced and novice birders alike. Terry Rich, our local ornithologist, provides information and tips on birds in the Boise area and beyond! Come to one or all sessions! Bird books and binoculars are available to borrow.

After the presentation, join Terry Rich for beginner-friendly birding around the Foothills Learning Center. Binoculars will be available to borrow.
