Nature Store Author Event: Birding for Boomers
…And Everyone Else Brave Enough to Embrace the World’s Most Rewarding and Frustrating Activity by Sneed Collard III
Join us for a morning of learning, birding, and fun! Author Sneed Collard III will take us through his newest book, Birding for Boomers, a friendly, accessible, and humorous guide to discovering the joys of bird watching. Late-bloomer birders (and birders of all ages) will appreciate Collard’s personal insights and tips for overcoming aging-related challenges such as physical handicaps, poor hearing, or failing eyesight. Appealing and light-hearted, Birding for Boomers will help a wide range of readers overcome any doubts and get started with watching, understanding, and conserving our feathered friends. After the presentation and book signing, we’ll hit the sanctuary trails and test out our new birding skills!
