Get ready for spring by learning about the largest and most colorful family of birds who visit the Washington area. Warblers are some of the most challenging birds to identify - they are often small and fast moving with distinctive but easily confused calls and songs. This 4-part FREE class will help you learn warbler plumages, behaviors and vocalizations. Each class will start at 7 p.m. and last about an hour.
