EVERETT — The Adopt A Stream Foundation is hosting an ecology class on hummingbirds at 1 p.m. Saturday at the Northwest Stream Center, 600 128th St. SE, Everett.
Greg Green, wildlife biologist and instructor at Western Washington University, will lead the class. Green teaches ecology and natural history at Western and is also the author of the book “Wild Lives,” which highlights some of Washington’s wildlife through photographs and essays.
During the class, Green will discuss the ecology of hummingbirds, including a comparison of North American hummingbirds with those found in Ecuador. He will also debrief his research journey with Anna’s hummingbird, a species Green became interested in over a decade ago when he began to explore why the bird winters in the Pacific Northwest.
Tickets are $8 for members and $10 for general admission. Pre-register for the event at streamkeeper.com or buy tickets at the door.
