Birding for Mindfulness

Did you know on any given day you can encounter an astonishing variety of wild animals right on campus? It's true, and I'm not just talking about bugs. Or squirrels, although I love those little acorn spreaders. I'm talking about birds.

In this session we will seek the liveliness of the world around us. Specifically, we will go to those underexplored margins of campus to kick up jewels that were there all along. And no, not to take, but to appreciate within context. To be mindful of our multispecies existence. To notice the unnoticed and reflect on life on earth. Oh yeah, and to see cool birds!

Binoculars will be provided but bring your own if you have them!
