Bird Walks Are Back!
Weekday Early-morning Bird Walk THIS TUESDAY!
Note two different starting points!

- Sunday, June 25, 9:30am: Hillside Woods. Meet by the kiosk just north of Chemka Pool Parking Lot.
Even with spring migration over, the birding excitement has not dulled in Hillside Woods! Most species are now tending to nests, meaning it's an excellent time to witness birds in the process of rearing young. Come witness orioles, vireos, owls, hawks, herons, and plenty more. Bring binoculars if you have a pair.
$10pp plus processing fee.
--------
Max 10-12pp per walk.
Seeking a volunteer to administer this project: liaise and confirm walkers and walk leaders, schedule walks, and update this webpage and calendar. Interested? Email us!
