Late fall through winter is prime time to view dozens of waterfowl species that migrate through south-central Wisconsin. In this class, you'll learn about what species you can expect to find, useful field marks for identifying waterfowl in varied viewing conditions (especially if you don't have a scope!), helpful birding tips for waterfowl viewing, and recommended locations to visit. Before you know it, you'll be picking out a Redhead hiding in a raft of Canvasbacks!

This class is taught by Caitlyn Schuchhardt (she/her). Caitlyn is former Southern Wisconsin Bird Alliance staff and author of our Entryway to Birding blog series for beginning birders. She is also a co-leader of the Feminist Bird Club - Madison Chapter.
