Flights of Fancy: Evening Bird Stroll

June 22, 2011

Bird lovers take wing!  We’ll be flocking at Shangri La this evening to enjoy the sights and sounds of thousands of nesting birds.  Our special guest will be famous artist-naturalist John James Audubon, who will come to life with the help of author and performer Brian “Fox” Ellis.  Mr. Audubon will share stories of his outdoor adventures as our feathered friends fly into Ruby Lake to roost for the night.   Maxine, our resident Barred Owl, will be available to welcome you.  Other activities will provide opportunities to learn more about Audubon and the birds he identified from Stark Museum and Shangri La educators.  This family-friendly program is FREE to the public.  6:00 p.m. – 9:00 p.m.  If you are a teacher who attends the teacher workshop, Shangri La will award 3 CPE hours for attending this program.  In case of inclement weather, the program will take place at Shangri La’s Discovery Theater.
