Birdie Big Year: Elevating Women Birders with Tiffany Kersten

May 20 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm

Presented by Tiffany Kersten, 2021 Big Year record holder and professional bird guide.

Tiffany Kersten didn’t set out to do a Big Year, but after a series of unanticipated and serendipitous events, she suddenly found herself amidst one. As a sexual assault survivor, she spent 2021 traveling to all corners of the Lower 48 States, tallying birds and gifting personal safety alarms to women she met along the way. Her goal was to see 700 species and raise awareness of women’s safety outdoors. She surpassed her goal and set a new record of 726 species. In her presentation, Tiffany will lead us through the fear, empowerment, struggles, and healing that all played vital roles in the personal growth she experienced on this wild adventure.
