where natural history meets art
So much going on this summer! In addition to our Birding Without Barriers effort, we also have many programs. Come birding, explore nature, and make art with us.
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.
All birders — current, experienced, newbie and would-be — welcome!
Join our monthly monitoring walk to record birds at the Museum’s trails, forest, and meadow. Learn something new, share what you know, or both! Most fun for adults, older children.
Please bring your own binoculars and dress for the weather. We recommend bringing tick repellent and a water bottle.

Max: 12 people

How do artists perceive birds, waters, and the ways we interact? As you view the exhibit, consider recent history and the ways we tell it; the much-longer history of humans on the landscape in the Green Mountains and Champlain Valley; and the much, much, much longer stories of how birds have evolved with, use, and been influenced by water and waterways.
The show is open when the Museum is (Wednesday – Sundays, May 1 – October 31) and is included with admission. Admission is free for members.
Join us at the fourth evening of this year’s Over the “Hump” Summer Music Series.
Tonight’s concert with the Vermont Bluegrass Pioneers will benefit the Birds of Vermont Museum.
Proceeds and donations will go toward our Birding without Barriers project! Local art vendors and food trucks too!
Thanks to Mr Charlie Frazier of Blues for Breakfast and the Huntington Recreation Committee for organizing this community-and-beyond festival series!
Other dates for music and community:
July 8: The Mojo Birds
July 15: Duncan MacLeod
July 22: Blues Over E.A.S.S.Y.
Not an early riser? You’re not alone. Some birds also prefer to sing, call, or display in late afternoon and early evening. Enjoy a sunset stroll around the Museum’s forests and clearings and “meet” some of them.
Although we may see and hear fewer species than we do at dawn, a late day ramble gives us more time to appreciate each kind and to better learn their songs. In addition, we may observe moths, frogs, other insects, and maybe even a mammal or two.
Register by calling 802 434-2167 (a landline), or register online:
More walks are listed at https://birdsofvermont.org/special-upcoming/
Max: 8
Suggested donation: $5-$15
Meet at the Museum entrance
Conditions: Trails can be muddy and uneven, and there are some slopes. We usually walk then pause for observation. Some benches here and there provide additional rest points.
Tick protection is recommended.
