Description

Birds don’t just flap and fly — they fascinate. The Exploring Ornithology Course opens the door to the feathered world, giving you a front-row seat to the science behind beaks, wings, and songs. Whether you’re a curious beginner or someone who’s always wondered why pigeons bob their heads or how owls manage to fly so silently, this course brings birds to life through structured lessons, engaging insights, and up-to-date research from the skies above to the soil below.

From bird anatomy and migration patterns to avian evolution and birdwatching ethics, this course isn’t just for binocular-lovers. It's for anyone who's ever paused to admire a robin or puzzled over a puffin. No need to pack your rucksack—everything is explored from the comfort of your own space. If you’ve got an eye for nature and a mind that enjoys a bit of science with its sparrows, you’ll find plenty to chirp about here.
