Celebrating Birds in the Berkshires and Beyond 🐦 |

The Milne Public Library is participating in an initiative to provide programming and information about local and migratory birds and to encourage communities to take small actions that keep birds safe.
Flight Path has provided funding and materials to help the public learn about the science of birds and bird migration. As a part of this initiative, we have planned bird-related programs, activities and displays.
