Lunch & Learn: Birds of Barrington with Birder & Conservationist Wendy Paulson

May 17, 2023 @ 11:30 am - 12:45 pm

Barrington’s White House is excited to announce its newest “Lunch & Learn” cultural event series. Community members are invited to bring their lunch and enjoy discussions, demonstrations, and more on a variety of topics. Tickets are $10 per person and include non-alcoholic drinks.

Spring has sprung! Join local naturalist Wendy Paulson while she explores the many beautiful birds that live in and around Barrington. Barrington is especially rich in natural areas, from forest preserves to privately protected sites, which host a variety of bird species. Wendy will discuss these species and where, when, and how to find them.

Wendy will lead a walk at Baker’s Lake that afternoon at 3:30 pm. If you’d like to join, click HERE to view the full schedule with instructions on how to register.

Wendy Paulson has lived in Barrington since 1975 and has provided nature education, including public bird walks, for many years. Many know her as “the Nature Lady”; she revived and taught in that District 220 program for eleven years. Wendy initiated and directed the education program for the Barrington-based Citizens for Conservation and is an active participant in their native habitat restoration activities. She writes the “Birds of Barrington column for the 365 Barrington website and Quintessential Barrington magazine.
