Welcome to the 2024 Outdoor Learning Conference
Saturday, May 11 • 2:00pm - 4:30pm
Building a Sense of Place Through Birds

Sign up or log in to save this to your schedule, view media, leave feedback and see who's attending!


Get to know your local birds using the magic of Merlin! The Merlin Bird ID app lets you discover which birds are in your area from season to season, by sight or sound.

Take a bird walk with us to practice using the app, learn activities that use birds to inspire connection to place, and chat about the power of birds to connect people locally and globally.

Prior to the workshop, please download the Merlin app and install the Canada West and your local bird packs so you’re ready to explore your local birds and the birds of Banff. If you have binoculars, bring those too.

Please be prepared to be walking outside whatever the weather for 2 hours.

Meet outside the Kinnear Centre on the back patio ready to go at 2pm.
