Chirp & Chat: "Bands of Discovery"

About This Event

✨ Why You Should Go:
There’s something truly magical about standing under the morning light, hearing birdsong, and watching science unfold right before your eyes.

“Chirp & Chat: Bands of Discovery” isn’t just another birding event — it’s a living classroom where curiosity meets conservation.

Led by Dr. Rebekah Rylander, Ornithologist, Educator, and Citizen-Science Advocate, together with Mr. Kelly Bryan, Master Bander, Conservationist, and Field Mentor, this hands-on experience brings you face-to-face with the fascinating process of bird banding — a crucial tool in understanding bird migration and protecting wildlife habitats.

Here’s why you’ll love it:

🌤️ Witness experts gently capture, band, and release birds — up close and personal.
📸 Learn how each tiny band helps scientists protect migratory species across continents.
🧠 Discover how you can be part of citizen-science efforts in your own backyard.
🤝 Meet fellow bird lovers, families, and community volunteers.
💚 Leave inspired to protect the natural wonders that make Aransas County so special.
