About Bird Walks

Join Us for a Spring Bird Walk with DC Bird Alliance!

Spot birds against spring blooms on this bird walk through the U.S. National Arboretum led by the DC Bird Alliance. Spring migration is upon us, and many intrepid voyagers are returning home for the season or stopping by the Arboretum on their way to further destinations. Join us to learn about bird migration and identification tips through the changing seasons.
