Join Bird Diva, Bridget Butler, for a presentation and discussion exploring how birding can boost our well-being and stave off stress and anxiety.

Presenter Bio:

​Bridget Butler, AKA The Bird Diva, has been working in conservation and environmental education for more than 20 years throughout New England. She owns her own small business, Bird Diva Consulting, which provides presentations, outings, and online courses for folks interested in exploring their connection with birds. Bridget is a certified KripaluMindfulness Outdoor Guide, and has worked for the Audubon Society in Vermont, Maine, New Hampshire, and Massachusetts. Her Slow Birding work has been featured on numerous podcasts including the American Birding Podcast, Ray Brown’s Talkin’ Birds Podcast, and the South Africa podcast The Birding Life. As the Bird Diva, she feels that birding is for anyone who enjoys and is curious about birds - if you take delight in noticing birds, you are a birder. Bridget lives in St. Albans, Vermont with her husband and three young children.
