North Dakota, US - Led by Amanda Booher
This year at our Frostival Annual Winter Birding festival we will have a unique opportunity for a mindful birding experience. Join Audubon's mindful birding bird guide, Amanda Booher, who will guide participants through a mindful birding practice to encourage observation of birds at a heightened awareness. Labeling or identifying birds will not be the primary focus, but instead, the intention is slowing down and noticing, using birds as our guides. This style of observation invites self-exploration, reciprocity, and an acknowledgement of our physical and emotional responses while within the practice. Participants will be expected to be able to walk about 15-20 minutes. Dress for the cold weather. Binoculars are optional. Spots are limited.
