David Simpson On Birding Next Monday Night

LABELLE, FL. -- Learn how eBird has changed hundreds of people birding habits for the better during a lively program by David Simpson on Monday January 12 at 7 p. m. at the Cooperative Extension, Dallas Townsend Building 1085 Pratt Blvd. in LaBelle. 

Ebird can help you learn birds and make your birding more fun, says David Simpson, a lifelong resident of central Florida, where he has been birding for over 25 years. He has over 25 years of experience leading tours, both through his previous job as a ranger at the St. Sebastian Buffer Preserve, as well as at festivals including the Space Coast Birding and Wildlife Festival and the Big "O" Birding festival. 

In addition to birds, he is familiar with all aspects of Florida wildlife and has an extensive knowledge of native plants, snakes, frogs, and many other critters you encounter in Florida. He is the current holder of many American Birding Association records, including Big Year (both first and second place for Florida) and Big Day (current holder of 10 monthly records in Florida).
