We are going to go out for a relaxing morning bird hike in honor of World Migratory Bird Day. This day is celebrated on the second Saturday of May each year as birds travel to nesting sites. Learn about the species that are migrating through our area while listening and looking for our feathered friends. This program is for all birding skill levels.
Fee: Free!
Age: Ages 16 and older.
