In conjunction with this worldwide birding event, a birding class will be offered at the Nature Center and will feature information about species identification, the importance of the bird count, how to do basic bird observation, and how to correctly enter the tally into the Great Backyard Bird Count website. Several computers will be available at the Nature Center so that participants are able to enter their data correctly. After the introduction, participants are encouraged to use the 22 acres of Dunwoody Park to do their bird count. As part of the Nature Center’s mission to educate children, families, and adults of all ages about the natural world and our place in it, this event will be FREE and open to the public. Classes are Saturday at 9:30 and 11:00; Monday at 10:00, 12:00 and 2:00; bird watching all weekend long. Register at http://www.dunwoodynature.org/Great-Backyard-Bird-Count#register
