Description:
Join the Blacksburg Price House Nature Center on Saturday, February 16th for a special program entitled "Winter Camouflage and the Great Backyard Bird Count".

Visit our exhibits and we’ll explore what animals do to fit in with their winter surroundings and while we are observing, we’ll be counting! The Great Backyard Bird Count (or GBBC) takes place over four days in February each year and people from all over submit their counts to the Cornell Lab of Ornithology.
