Looking to Upgrade Your Binoculars?
Better Birding With The Right Optics
SATURDAY, AUGUST 14
10:30 AM – 12:00 PM
Join Lisa Myers and Nikon’s Birding Specialist, Mike Freiberg, for a fun and friendly review of optics — a necessary piece of equipment for successfully finding birds in nature. Knowing how to best use your binoculars is very important. Many of you may have questions about your binoculars or you may be thinking about owning a new pair. We are here to help. This event at The Los Gatos Birdwatcher is free but call to reserve your space. 408‑358‑9453.

World Migratory Bird Day
World Migratory Bird Day (WMBD) is traditionally celebrated on the 2nd Saturday of May. Globally it is an annual awareness-raising campaign highlighting the need for the conservation of migratory birds and their habitats. At this time Covid-19 prevents us from holding an event, but we will have this year’s 2021 T-shirts available for purchase. This year’s T-shirt design was contributed by Artist Sara Wolman. Sara is currently the Visual Information Specialist at the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge where she continues to educate the public about conservation through visual media.
Shirts are being pre-sold for $19.99 and will be available later this spring. Call, email, or come by the store to place your order.
