Birds and Birding with Ben Oko

The pandemic has led to a remarkable increase in the interest in birds. We will talk about birds, birding and bird conservation. We will also look at population trends for birds and look at the question folks have, “ are there more birds this year?

Ben Oko has been active in conservation for a long time. He chaired the Ridgefield Conservation Commission for ten years, is a member of RACE and the Town’s energy task force, is a board member of Audubon Connecticut as well as participating in other regional conservation efforts. He enjoys bird watching, is a member of the Western Connecticut bird club  and has started a bird watching group at the Ridgefield Men’s Club.

This program is part of the Celebrating 50 Years of Earth Day series, which is co-sponsored by RACE and the Ridgefield Library.

This program is also part of the Ridgefield Library's Adult Summer Reading Program and is made possible thanks to the Friends of the Ridgefield Library.
