Bird Banding at the Barn

Join ornithologist Dr. Neil Bernstein for a special bird banding program. Be our guest and drop in at Penningroth Barn (6665 Otis Rd) anytime to watch Dr. Bernstein net, band, and release birds from the Nature Center property. You’ll get a chance to see the equipment he uses, observe the banding process, and learn about the importance of banding. You’ll also get an up-close look at the birds!

Children and families are welcome to join in on the fun. Banding is a weather-dependent activity.

This program is free and open to the public; free will donations to the Nature Center are welcome.

FREE. No registration required.

All banding, marking, and sampling is being conducted under a federally authorized Bird Banding Permit issued by the U.S. Geological Survey’s BBL
