Corvids, the family of birds that includes crows, ravens, and jays, tend to evoke a strong response in people: seems we either respect them for their cleverness and tool use or we resent them for their loud voices and nest-robbing habit. Attend this class to learn more about who the corvids are and why they deserve respect. And if you don’t yet know how to tell a crow and a raven apart, this class will set you straight!
Tuition: $5 - $15 sliding scale
