Birds in Your Backyard: A Collections Tour of CT Birds

For the 25th anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s Legacy of Social and Environmental Justice, the Yale Peabody Museum invites you on a unique behind-the-scenes tour through one of the country's richest bird collections. Learn about the native bird species you can find in your backyard this season from Kristof Zyskowski, Vertebrate Zoology Collections Manager, and Thomas Parlapiano, Public Education Manager.

The virtual tour is only the start! The Yale Peabody Museum is hosting a series of free, online programs in the reimagined celebration of Dr. King's legacy this year. The digital festival experience offers opportunities to engage in critical dialogue and enjoy storytelling, music, dance, and spoken word performances.

The Yale Schwarzman Center is pleased to be a partner in this commemorative series, generously sponsored by Citizens™.
