Do you enjoy watching birds? No matter the time of day or where you are there is typically at least some species of bird around you. What dictates the bird species you see are seasons, weather, climate, habitat, as well as available resources. 

In this activity we will teach you how to identify birds from just their songs and calls. You’ll also learn what each bird looks like and the color differences between males and females. Once we’ve taught you some of these skills you should be able to begin your birding adventure here at the MAP or at home in your backyard.

PLEASE NOTE:

  • We require a 24 hour cancellation notice for Little Explorers Club and JAM Sessions reservations via emailing info@visitthemap.org. Please include the name on the reservation, number of students, date and time of the class.

  • Parents are, of course, always welcome to remain in class but should a parent choose to step out, we have provided a seating area just outside the classrooms. Parents and siblings are also welcome to explore our Discovery Room or the rest of the Museum until the class concludes.
