Spring is one of the most exciting times of the year for birdwatching in SC, when many species of birds travel through on their journey north to breed. Ever wonder where the amazing birds we see at Seabrook and across SC have been all winter, and where they’re headed next? And how do our feathered friends make these amazingly long flights during migration?
Please join us, April 21 at 7:00 pm for our “Winged Wonders – The Phenomenon of Bird Migration”. SIB’s good friend, Matt Johnson, Center Director at the Audubon Center & Sanctuary at Francis Beidler Forest, will be our speaker.
Matt has advised us that as you join us for his discussion, these birds will literally be on the move above our heads as they migrate north!
