Bird Identification – An Introduction

A Lifelong Learning Aberystwyth Course

Do you struggle with bird identification and spotting the differences between them? 

You can hear they sound different, but you are not sure how to remember the call.  All you need is an expert guide and tutor to help you to focus, develop observation skills and note their key features.

The number of species and the range in shape, colour and call may surprise you. Come and gain an enormous amount of pleasure and knowledge from observing and learning about birds in the wonderful habitats. The majority of the course will take place outside, observing a wide range of species but there will be some indoor sessions to consolidate observations and develop knowledge of the species encountered. 

Tutor: David Anning

Fees: £120 full price (£110 concession).
