WYOMING — Looking to hone a new hobby?

AARP Wyoming and Audubon of the Rockies will join forces this spring to host a virtual series about birdwatching. The free series, open to people of all ages, will help participants learn to spot, identify and track birds of the West using observational skills, digital birding tools and migration insights.

“Each session builds confidence without jargon or pressure — perfect for beginners and curious watchers alike,” AARP said in its event announcement.

Sessions will be held over Zoom on Fridays at 10 a.m. and will be led by Zach Hutchinson, community science coordinator for Audubon Rockies:

  • March 27 – A trivia-based kick-off
  • April 3 – An introduction to bird watching
  • April 10 – Identification session
  • April 17 – Tools of the trade and digital birding
  • April 24 – Where to look for birds in Wyoming and the West
