The American Museum of Science and Energy (AMSE) and the University of Tennessee Arboretum are partnering together to launch a Citizen Science Birding Program which will include monthly guided birdwatching walks and educational Zoom programs. The December Guided Bird Walk will be held at the UT Arboretum on Wednesday, December 17 at 8:00 am. Please meet at the kiosk outside of the UT Arboretum Visitors Center. This guided walk will be led by Corky Witt and Courtney Beard from the American Museum of Science and Energy in Oak Ridge. The event is limited to 15 participants.

"Bird watching is now North America's second most popular outdoor activity (second only to gardening).” Says AMSE educator Corky Witt. “There must be something to it—so come out with us and find out why!”
