Learn about birds in just 6 weeks !!

Introduction

India is home to the largest number of bird species in the world. We are blessed with more than 1300 species. Owing to the popularity of birds and bird watching around us we are happy to launch a short term online course on Birds for Beginners. Eminent ornithologists will be involved as experts for chats, field visits, and study modules. It is a graded course and you will receive a certificate after successful completion of the course.
As the name suggests, the course is suitable for amateur nature enthusiasts such as students, teachers, and families. If birds excite you and you do not have any science background, this course might help you fuel your passion.
