Bird Banding at Prairiewoods

Drop in anytime to watch Dr. Bernstein net, band, and release birds from the Prairiewoods land!

Join ornithologist Dr. Neil Bernstein at Prairiewoods for a special bird banding program. Drop in anytime to watch Dr. Bernstein net, band, and release birds from the Prairiewoods land. You’ll have an opportunity to learn about the equipment used, the importance of bird banding and get an up-close look at the birds! Children and families are encouraged to join in on this fun activity. Banding is a weather-dependent activity.

All banding, marking, and sampling is being conducted under a federally authorized Bird Banding Permit issued by the U.S. Geological Survey.

This program is free and open to the public with no registration required (but helpful if weather causes us to cancel); donations are accepted.
