Lectures at the Lagoon

Do you like lookin’ at birds? Then you’re a birder! Help interdisciplinary artist, poet, performer, Florida Master Naturalist and Audubon Everglades’ Director of Education and Outreach Autumn Kioti Horne spread the bird nerd word: NATURE IS FOR EVERYBODY.

This fun presentation is the first step toward becoming a real bird nerd. If you’ve never birded before but are birding-curious, this is your moment! Autumn will demonstrate that birding is accessible to all, no matter your knowledge or ability. And if you are a more seasoned birder, join us and link up with some new bird-minded friends. We’ll nerd out about birds, conservation-conscious birding, and discover Audubon Everglades’ programs and fieldtrips for individuals of all shapes, sizes, abilities and identities.
