Young Birder

It’s never too early to start birding!

The Howard County Bird Club is encouraging our young birders (ages 7-18, along with their accompanying adult) to meet informally every month or so. Young Birder Work Group chair Terri Berkheimer (tgtberk@gmail.com) will serve as their point person should they or an adult organizer need assistance with communications, picking a date and location or need support from the bird club (i.e., loaner binoculars). Our hope is that the more experienced young birders will lead the bird walks. This is a new endeavor, so we’ll see what direction it takes, as we focus on fostering a sense of community among the young birders and point them to available resources as needed.
