Inland Bays Birding: Osprey

Take a guided walking tour through the James Farm Ecological Preserve to learn more about one of the Inland Bays' bird of prey - osprey!

Dust off your binoculars and join our resident osprey expert on a guided nature walk through the Preserve to learn more about osprey. There will be plenty of opportunities to spot other birds and learn more about the Preserve!

Participants will spend the majority of the program walking along the Preserve’s trails. We recommend wearing closed-toe shoes for comfort and safety. Please bring water, sunscreen, and insect repellent, as the Preserve can be buggy at times.

The walk will cover approximately 1.5 miles across various terrains, including wooden boardwalks, tree roots, and sandy paths, with frequent stops along the way.

Important Notes:

Participants under the age of 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian at all times.

This program is weather permitting.

Attendance is free, but registration is encouraged.
