IN-PERSON PROGRAM
We are excited to have photographer, educator, and birder Kris Cu from Birds Canada lead this by-donation birding program for the Filipino community! This program will introduce you to the beauty of local birds like Anna’s Hummingbirds, Wilson’s Warblers, and Black-capped Chickadees, all while meeting new people and sharing in the outdoors.
ABOUT PROGRAM LEADER
Kris Cu is a biological sciences graduate from SFU and is passionate about biodiversity, conservation, sustainability, and science communication. He grew up in the bustling city of Manila, Philippines where he was first introduced to birdwatching with his father. Upon moving to Canada, he has carried over his love for birds and is grateful to be currently working for Birds Canada. Nowadays, he is often seen with a camera in the field as he captures images of the incredible wildlife around him (@kris.cu on Instagram).
