Birding Walk w/ NYS Breeding Bird Atlas

Saturday June 25, 8:30am

On “Big Atlas Weekend” the regional coordinator for the NYS Breeding Bird Atlas will lead a free birding walk at The Uplands Center. The walk is best for those who are already experienced in birding, as the goal is to collect data on breeding birds. However, there will be some educational components such as how to use e-bird and how to record data. No registration required – email renee@uplandscenter.org with questions.

Women’s Circle

Wednesday June 29th, 6pm

Gather up the amazing resource of spending intentional time with other women! You’ll walk away feeling restored by connection to each other within a safe community. We’ll gather, breathe, move, reflect and connect. This month’s theme is spiritual connection. Located at The Uplands Center cherry grove, or yoga room if there is rain. To register email chelsea@chelseafrisbee.com. It’s free!
