Birds and Your Brain: Are there Feathers in your Future

May 15 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm

$20

The highlight of Victoria Bird Week 2023 presented by Rocky Point Bird Observatory is this keynote address presented by Ann Nightingale.

Can birds improve your health, your memory, your physical well-being? Studies have shown that merely being in the presence of birds can lower anxiety and improve mood.  Birding, as a novice or an expert, can slow the brain’s aging process through focusing attention, building memory, and keeping observers physically and socially active.  Join bird enthusiast Ann Nightingale for an entertaining and motivating talk on what birds can do for you and your brain.
