where natural history meets art
May is such a bursting month! Birds, birds, buds, buds. We’ve held our regular monthly monitoring walk, and our weekly Early Birder Morning walks, and of course been amazed but what we see and hear. Next year, we might hold the first two Early Birder walks at 7:30 or 8 am (it can be a little slow and chilly at 7); let us know what you think about that!
June brings lots of birding, a dinner event, and an art workshop, complementing the actual birds, the carvings, and annual community art show.
Drop in! At this time of year the museum is open from 10am – 4 pm Wednesdays – Sundays. Admission is free for members. Visit birdsofvermont.org/visit/ for more information.

Noisy Wood Frogs, busy Chipmunks, and some nifty Sparrows!
Go birding—with us at the end of the month or anytime that works for you! We are open by appointment for this month, as well as during any events we host. We’ll return to regular hours in May!
Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
We love sharing
birds with you.
Sugaring season is upon us, and it’s time to look for some early returning migrants. We’re still watching birds, making art, and exploring winter as often as we can.
We are open by appointment through the rest of the winter, as well as during the special events we have this month.
We had a relatively cold stretch of weather this January, which can lead to extra activity at the feeders. Perhaps that explains the one unusual sighting?
