Bird Anatomy Illustration – SongbirdsSaturday, October 3, 1:00 p.m.

Arboretum, 250 Arboretum Road

This single-session program will provide a basis for understanding the anatomy of birds through illustration. The program will not only provide attendees with the background to illustrate anatomically correct birds but will also provide a basic understanding of anatomy and ID tips for introductory birders. The goal is to increase the appreciation of the public towards these beautiful creatures and encourage us to work collaboratively to preserve the natural world. This workshop will focus solely on songbird anatomy, and will be divided into 4 sections, each with a 20-minute break in between for questions and practice. We will investigate feather structure and feather groupings on the head, wings, body, and tail, and end off with some ID and illustration tips! Excited to see you there!
