Due to enthusiastic community response, the popular For the Love of Birds series is returning to Auburn. Nearly 70 people attended the most recent gathering, sparking lively discussion, shared learning, and plenty of connection among local bird lovers.
Hosted by the Sierra Foothills Audubon Society, the March 10 program will be held in the Cordova Room at the Placer County Health and Human Services complex behind Home Depot in Auburn.
The evening will feature engaging, practical sessions designed for bird enthusiasts of all levels, including:
