Summer is here. The songbirds are nesting and raising young--and so are the accipiters. All five "voices" of the birds will likely be on display this month's gathering giving us a window into their lives and into the dynamic interconnectedness of the forest.

What should I bring?

Bring what you need to be comfortable sitting still, outside on the ground for an extended period of time—perhaps as long as an hour. You will also need something to take notes on. You do not need to have binoculars, but there is no harm in bringing a pair if you would like. Here are a few recommended and optional items to bring:

Recommended:

Note pad & pencil

Ground cloth, blanket or camp-chair

Sun protection

Poncho if it is raining

Optional:

Water bottle

Snack

Binoculars

Sign me up!
