Column: Even experienced birders still have a lot to learn

BANGOR DAILY NEWS • December 15, 2022

You’re never too old to learn about birds — and humility. I just completed an online course from the Cornell Lab of Ornithology, entitled “Be A Better Birder: Warbler Identification.” it was the most comprehensive and complete review of warbler identification I’ve ever seen. Most birders have never taken a single ornithology course. I was a government major, and learned nothing useful. There are 23 courses online. They are on sale through the end of the year. ~ Bob Duchesne
