About this event

  • Event lasts 2 hours

On Saturday, June 7 from 8 - 10 am ET, join wildlife biologist Mike Fargione for a springtime bird walk on Cary's grounds. In this guided walk, participants will learn about principles of birding, how to use field guides and mobile apps, and, of course, how to find and identify birds using binoculars. Whether you are an advanced birder or just starting to recognize your first species, all are welcome to join.

Participants are encouraged to dress for the weather, wear comfortable walking shoes, and bring drinking water and binoculars. This will be an easy to moderate hike of fewer than 2 miles on trails.

This event is free and open to all, but space is limited, and registration is required.
