The Sustainability offices of UW Bothell and Cascadia College invite the community for an evening of crow education, birdwatching and discussions with avian experts 4 p.m. on Tuesday, Nov. 19. Crow Watch is free and happening at the Activities & Recreation Center (ARC) on the UW Bothell and Cascadia College campus. Aligning with the campus’s sustainability values, this event will educate the community on crow behavior and ecology, highlight local conservation work and raise awareness about the roosting crow population on campus.  

Speakers for the evening include UW Bothell faculty members Dr. Douglas Wacker and Dr. Ursula Valdez, UW Seattle lecturer and crow researcher Dr. Loma Pendergraft, and Tulalip tribe storyteller Lois Landgrebe. There will be a tabling fair to connect with local wildlife groups and learn about crow ecology, crow social behaviors and human-bird connections.

“We’re very excited to invite the community back to the UW Bothell and Cascadia College campus to learn about the crows,” said Stephan Classen, Assistant Director of Sustainability at Cascadia College. “Although it’s a smaller roost this year, crows are still coming to Bothell, and we are ecstatic to showcase the amazing world of crows.”

Doors open at 3:30 p.m., and the event starts at 4 p.m.. Register here.
