We had the unique opportunity to have Kris, who is the chair of the education department for the Audubon Society, visit Garden Way and do a workshop on bird watching and identification. After a short lecture on different types of birds using a teaching collection of stuffed birds, the lesson was coupled with drawing birds and learning a layered color pencil technique. Each of the residents learned new and interesting facts about a varitey of birds and then had a blast learning how to draw them as well!
