Celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month and join us on October 9th from 5 to 6:30pm for an evening with one of our 2024 Naturally Latinos speakers María Elena Montero at Woodend Nature Sanctuary. María Elena is an expert bird guide and yoga teacher who will start off the walk with some gentle yoga moves before being led into the woods for a bird walk exploration with two of our Nature Forward Naturalist, Genevieve Wall and Gina Ghertner. We will come back to Woodend mansion grounds to do some more sunset yoga and wrap up eating bocaditos (snacks). Nature Forward is working to ensure a sustainable future in the DMV. While this event is FREE, your $10-$15 donation for this Conservation Café helps support that ongoing effort! Speaker’s Bio: Maria Elena was raised in Takoma Park, Maryland, where she first fell in love with the outdoors and with birds. She is Afro-Latino of Cuban-Dominican descent and fluent in Spanish, rumbao and bachata (not necessarily in that order). An avid birder, Maria Elena sits on the board of directors for DC Audubon Society and regularly leads birdwalks around the DC area. María Elena se crió en Takoma Park, Maryland, donde se enamoró por primera vez del aire libre y de las aves.
