Have you ever wished that you had discovered birds earlier in life? Do you wish you had been able to take an Ornithology course in college? Antbird Tours is proud to offer a full, college-level course in Ornithology! This 10-week course will cover all of the topics you would be exposed to in a university setting. Through a series of video and image-rich lectures, you will learn about avian evolution, anatomy, taxonomy and much more! Weekly labs will offer a deep-dive into individual avian families, such as hawks, eagles, warblers and kingfishers! The class even includes graded quizzes as a way to gauge your comprehension of the material covered. At the end of this course you will have the same thorough understanding of bird biology that you would after a college class in Ornithology.
