Backyard Birding Webinar Recording

On January 31st, 2024, we welcomed a very special guest presenter, Bob Bell to WOW a large webinar audience to discover the beauty and interesting facts about local birds with a focus on tips to help take backyard birding to the next level.

Bob has worked to attract a wide variety of birds to his backyard (in Ancaster) and he has heard from many folks, including his fellow birders, that they are amazed at the different species that often visit him.

More about Bob:

Bob was a mineral exploration geologist who had to retire in 2015 after having contracted Lyme disease. He subsequently discovered the healing power of birds and birding, and wrote a book about it, titled “Out of the Lyme Light and into the Sunlight: Birding as Therapy for the Chronically Ill.”
