Birdwatching Virtual Series Comes to Wyoming

CHEYENNE - For the Birds: From Backyard to Binoculars, an AARP Wyoming-sponsored virtual series in partnership with the Audubon of the Rockies, helps you spot, identify, and track birds of the west by using simple observation skills, digital birding tools, and migration insights. Each session builds confidence without jargon or pressure—perfect for beginners and curious watchers alike.

The series is free, and there is no need to be an AARP member or over age 50 to participate. To register for the event using your aarp.org account, simply click here. You will receive an email with the Zoom link before the session.

The sessions are led by Zach Hutchinson, Community Science Coordinator for the Audubon Rockies, who brings deep knowledge of bird identification, migration behavior, and modern birding tools—especially digital resources that make bird watching easier and more accurate than ever.
