In the mean time...
Resources for prospective students - Considering the intensive nature of the program, a certain level of familiarity with the birds of our state is required for interested applicants. Most Master Birder applicants should be able to recognize about 80-100 Washington State birds by sight (and identify most of the rest to family) and at least 20 by song.
