How Long Have You Been Trying to Learn About Birds?

When you think about your BIRDING SKILLS, do you ever say:

I Don't Know Where to Begin

There’s so much information out there, it’s overwhelming to know where to begin.

I've Tried Everything

Trust me!!!  I’ve listened to all of the recordings, read all the books, heard lectures with experts; but nothing ever seems to make a difference.

I Just Wasn't Born With That Gift

Birding is a talent that only certain people are born with.  I really needed to start when I was a kid if I wanted to have any chance of being good at it.

What's The Point

I just don’t think I’ll get any better then I am now!!
Actually, you can

IMPROVE YOUR BIRDING SKILLS

and it doesn’t have to take you a lifetime?

IT’S TRUE!!!!

 

 

No matter how old you are, where you live, how much prior experience you have… this course will TAKE YOUR SKILLS to the next level!

Not only am I living proof, just ask my students, most of whom started when they were over 50.

These ideas are AWESOME!

I get a lot of fulfillment learning from other BIRD NERDS in beautiful locations around the world and have picked up really helpful birding tips just by searching the internet.

The only downside I’ve found, is that these options either require a substantial investment of my time or my money.

I have been interested in birds most of my life, but  without a lot of knowledge. A few years ago I got to a place where I really wanted to go deeper.   Kristi’s Advanced Skills for Beginning Birders course came along at just the right time. I wasn’t sure at first if I wanted to commit the time and resources to it, but the structure and support  was just what I needed to help deepen my knowledge and observational skills. I found participating in the group mentoring sessions to be a key aspect to keep me motivated and enthused. Kristi supports her students through questions, stories and guided activities to approach bird learning as an adventure.
