AL Birders,
Over the last year, AOS has been working to provide access to educational
materials about birds and birding. We've just added a great resource on
shorebird identification by past-president Drew Haffenden. This is based on
a previous online talk beautifully illustrated by Drew's photographs. He has
recently added extensive comments to the slides which share his experience
on the most important factors for shorebird ID in general, then what is best
to observe for each species. The material will be helpful to birders of any
level of experience. This annotated PDF is available for free download at:
When on that page, take a look at the other offerings, which include
detailed presentations on how to identify terns and vireos, as well as a
extensive set of videos on birding by Geoff Hill. And browse around the
whole website, which was artfully redesigned this year by Joe Watts.
Thank you, Drew, for creating and sharing this excellent birding resource!
