Quinta Mazatlan welcomes presenter Timothy Brush on June 1 as he shares what he has learned and is still learning about Valley birds.

Green Jays and Clay-colored Thrushes are tropical birds that many birders love to see. While they are often seen at nature centers and refuges, they are also readily seen in towns and cities around the Rio Grande Valley. Brush has been conducting a bird-banding study of these birds since March 2018 to better understand their lives in our area. Bird banding is a federally regulated process which requires extensive training to ensure the safety of the birds.

Brush is a retired professor of Biology who taught at UT Rio Grande Valley and has studied Valley birds for more than 30 years. He enjoys sharing what he has learned and is still learning about Valley Birds.

Tickets for this presentation are $3 per person and are available for purchase at quintamazatlan.ticketleap.com.
