ABOUT ABOUT

Join us for the next Premium Program in the Stay at Home Speaker Series! This webinar will be a unique opportunity to hear directly from HMS Board Member Holly Merker.

One of the best ways to simplify learning  birdsong is by making connections between where you are, and who is singing. In this webinar, we will cover birds of forested landscapes, meadows, wetlands, and edges. We'll focus on include: warblers, thrushes, flycatchers, and sparrows, and more!

She has been teaching people the art of bird identification by sight, ear, and habitat, for the last two decades. Co-owner of the ID Boot Camp, and Ornitherapy, with ID Guide author Richard Crossley, Holly is also an instructor and session director for National Audubon’s Hog Island Camp in Maine, and has worked with teen birders instructing and direction the ABA’s Camp Avocet.  In addition, Holly serves as a mentor for the HMS Young Birders group, and a Co-founder and the Co-Chair of the Frontiers in Ornithology Symposium.
