A Night of Birds and Beers, and a day at the Raptor Center!

My good friend Sharon Stiteler (also known as Birdchick) created the first the Birds and Beers nights, to bring birders together for a fun time! The nights of Birds and Beers are an exciting time to hang out with fellow bird-lovers of all skill levels, enjoy some great food and of course, have some delicious beer! To many upper-midwest birdwatcher; if you have birds plus fantastic craft beer, you have the best of both worlds :)

The Raptor Center is world-renowned organization that educates people about raptors and conservation, and also has a leading raptor rehabilitation facility. They offer tours of their raptors, and have an amazing set of staff and volunteers that make the Raptor Center happen. The Raptor Center is located in St. Paul, MN.
