Winter Beginner Bird Walk
Location
About
Suitable for ages 10+.
Want to get into birding, but don’t know where to start? Come explore the Karner Barrens region of the preserve with us and look for winter birds! Join us this morning to learn how to use binoculars and identify birds by sight and sound.
We will take a 1-mile moderate hike, pausing frequently to listen and look for birds and observe their activities. Binoculars and field guides will be available to help identify any birds we encounter.
The program meets at Trailhead #1, Karner Barrens. Suggested donation: $5.
