In April and May 2011, birders from the US, UK, and Australia competed to see who could identify the most bird species in one day without jumping in a car.
Some truly amazing stories came out of this "Green Big Day" event, as well as a renewed interest in "greenbirding" as a movement.
On Tuesday, Sept. 13, biologist and avid birder Scott Smithson will share highlights of the event, some video footage of one of the "biking birders," and his vision of the future of greenbirding.
From 6:30 to 8:30 at the Fitz Wetlands Educational Resource Center; the talk is free but seats must be reserved.
