Bird Walks and Talks
~~~~We’re not just here to supply you with top-notch seed and feeders. As our home office puts it, “our aim is to foster appreciation for the natural world among people of all ages.” Therefore, we make our best effort to offer birding and other nature programs to all nature lovers in the St. Cloud area. Sometimes we will have demonstrations and talks in the store and at local nature centers, or walks through area parks.
~~~~Such programs are led by either store owner Janice Bergstrom, a lifelong naturalist and birder, or by me, her daughter. I may only be a junior in college, but I’m majoring in ecology (the study of how organisms interact with one another and their natural surroundings), and work as a natural history interpreter at the Bell Museum of Natural History while school is in session. My mom is an all-round walking encyclopedia of natural history knowledge, and I have been trained in working with children to better teach them about nature.
