Join Dave Edson, educator and naturalist, for this Mindful Birding experience at BNRC’s Thomas & Palmer Brook reserve in Great Barrington. Birding mindfully gives us the opportunity to slow down, get super curious, and improve our overall wellbeing. Science shows that paying close attention to birds has many benefits to the heart, mind, and soul.

Dave’s approach to Mindful Birding is through the lens of the Science of Awe. In a demanding and challenging world we get to pause, in community, as we put our attention on the joy of birds. While we appreciate the natural biodiversity of nature, we also have the opportunity to appreciate the diversity of birders. Mindful Birding is for everyone, so all experiences, all ages, all abilities, and all identities are encouraged to join. Families welcome.

Extra binoculars available for loan.
