Come and explore the varied habitats of Glacier with an ear for birds, identifying at least forty birds by their sounds.  We will enjoy early morning excursions to places such as Camas Creek, McGee Meadows and recently burned forests in the Flathead National Forest to hear the birds when they are most actively singing.  Saturday afternoon, we’ll take a look at warbler habitats and visit a lake with nesting loons followed by an evening of listening for owl calls.
