What's that melodious tune? Learn the answer to that question in our NEW in-depth class for adults: Southwestern Pennsylvania Birds. 

Learn from Aviary experts about the birds that commonly migrate through Pennsylvania in the fall, as well as the conservation work the Aviary does as part of the North American Songbird Saving Animals From Extinction® (SAFE) Program. Meet a feathered Animal Ambassador native to the Pittsburgh region, then finish up by taking a walk outside in Allegheny Commons Park to experience the great diversity of birds found even in urban habitats. This is class subject matter that you can easily put to use in your own backyard!
