Phil Witmer is an avid birder and conservationist with over 30 years of birding experience. He is a past board member of Bucks County Audubon Society, past president of the Delaware Valley Ornithological Club, one of the oldest birding clubs in the country, and was a member of the advisory board of Audubon Pennsylvania State Office. He is currently vice-president of Bird Town Pennsylvania, helping to build bird-friendly habitats in Pennsylvania municipalities. He has devoted much time to conserving birds, the forces driving their decline, and what we must do to save them. He leads bird walks with a conservation focus and lectures on various related topics. He teaches a course on backyard birding through the Main Line School Night.

This is a free event but we do ask that you register on Eventbrite, link here.
