Werner Wildlife Museum bird identification classes

Werner Wildlife Museum partners with the Murie Audubon Society to hosts bird identification classes

The Werner Wildlife Museum will host a series of four free bird identification classes Wednesday, April 23 and running consecutive Wednesdays through May 14.

Popular Werner Wildlife Series speaker Stacey Scott and Casper College biology instructor Luis Alza Leon will lead the classes. Both men have been avid bird watchers for many years and are well-versed in the bird species found in Wyoming.

The series does not require registration, and each class will cover a different set of birds. The group hosts a field trip every Saturday following a class. The public is welcome to attend any or all five classes, as each is a stand-alone unit.

“We are excited to host these classes since it speaks to our mission of education,” says Dalene Hodnett, Casper College director of museums. “It’s a great opportunity for our extensive
collection to serve the birding community,” she added.

The Werner Wildlife Museum, located off the Casper College campus at 405 E. 15th Street, is free and open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Friday.
