Learn about bird migration

Not every bird migrates south in winter. Some of the species that can be found in the Ozarks at this time of year make alterations to their routines so they can survive times of colder temperatures and leaner food sources. People can learn more about how birds survive winter at the Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) virtual program “Birds: Birds In Winter.” This online program, which will be from 10-10:30 a.m. on Dec. 27, is being put on by the staff of MDC’s Shepherd of the Hills Conservation Center in Branson. This program is open to all ages. At this program, MDC Naturalist Lead Eden will discuss various adaptations birds make to help them survive winter. She will also provide some tips on what people can do to help birds at this time of year.
