Witness 50 Years of Bird Banding | Kalamazoo News

Step into the heart of bird science at the Kalamazoo Nature Center this fall—where over 650,000 birds have been banded in half a century of vital research. Witness daily bird banding operations (except Saturdays) from late August through October, and catch rare hummingbird sessions on select Fridays. Only three people in Michigan are authorized to band Ruby-throated Hummingbirds—so you’re seeing something truly unique. All work is federally permitted by the U.S. Geological Survey, turning your visit into a hands-on lesson in conservation. Admission includes access; members get in free. It’s nature up close—with a scientific twist you won’t want to miss. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
