Join us as we learn how to draw birds! We will discuss foundational bird anatomy and bird identifiers, honing your observational skills, and basic drawing approaches to our favorite winged animals. All skill levels welcome! If the weather permits, we will also be spending some time outside to draw live birds in situ, so prepare to make yourself comfortable for the weather (hat, sunglasses, water bottle etc). If you have binoculars, please feel free to bring them to get a better look, though don't be concerned if you don't have any—we have a very active bird feeder and Audubon Nature Center campus.
Please bring:
– a sketchbook (preferably between 6"x9" and 11"x17")
– a graphite pencil
– eraser
– sharpener
– any of your favorite drawing supplies!
Additional recommendations:
– a set of colored pencils or water colors
– binoculars
– a hat/sunglasses
– water bottle

Birding Insights, Native Plants for Birds Workshop
You must register for this workshop (limit: 28 people) and complete the liability form when you register. Walk-up or impromptu participants will not be allowed. Other requirements are described below.
Are you passionate about native plants and want to learn more about the ecological connections between plants and our Colorado birds? Join us for an engaging and exciting workshop on ways to diversify the birds found within your neighborhood or your own backyard using a variety of food groups provided by our native plants. Learn about the complexities of wild bird diets and how native plants provide the opportunity to create additional bird biodiversity within the landscape. We will cover some of the science behind the essential need for native plants, native plant choices for seed, berry, and nectar production, as well as plant choices for supporting local insects, including adult butterflies and caterpillars. We will also review the Native Plants for Birds handout that was created in partnership between Denver Audubon, CoNPS, Audubon Rockies, and CSU Extension.
This workshop is designed for all skill levels of native plant enthusiasts.
