The field component will include bird identification and observation on visits to two active avian ecological research sites near High Pond Farm: the Bear Pond Natural Area in Canaan, NH, and the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest in Campton, NH. The research being undertaken at each site will be thoroughly discussed. There will also be time to explore the environs of High Pond Farm and to spend time in the classroom reviewing what we’ve learned in the field.

Len is an active researching avian ecologist specializing in migrating songbirds; in particular American Redstarts, Black-throated Blue Warblers, Norther Waterthrushes, Louisiana Waterthrushes, and Canada Warblers. His research takes him to New Hampshire, Jamaica, and Puerto Rico.
