Bird Diva, Bridget Butler, will facilitate a series of weekly sessions through a set of 4 pre-recorded videos, access to the Slow Birding Community for 6 months, and a variety of handouts and other resources. During this course, you’ll learn how to start a Sit Spot practice, enhance your observation skills, and deepen your connection to the birds right outside your door.

Slow Birding

Slow Birding is a mindful approach to connecting with nature through birds focused on place-based observations; slowing down and being in the moment with birds. This approach will free you from the traditional list-driven aspect of birding. It’s about re-awakening & fine-tuning your innate birding skills while at the same time creating a deeper connection to birds, the place you live, and to yourself.
