*as a conservation organization we encourage you to bring your own mug for coffee or tea

Bring your inner child to the December program as Constance Anderson discusses her newest book, So Many Ways To Be a Bird. As an award finalist for children’s non-fiction, this book explores the surprising world of bird adaptation, where each egg, beak, and wing has a unique story.

The book reveals how birds have brilliantly adapted to a changing environment over time, resulting in an incredible variety of sizes, colors, wings, nests, eggs, beaks, feet, and feathers. Constance’s vibrant collage illustrations help readers identify birds and inspire a desire to protect them.

So Many Ways To Be a Bird follows Constance’s previous titles: A Stick Until, a picture book and science journal about animal tool use; and Smelling Sunshine, which celebrates the connection between people of diverse backgrounds through the simple act of hanging laundry with a loved one.

Join us as author, illustrator, and naturalist Constance Anderson shares her love of birds and her desire to connect people to one another and the environment.
