This program is part of our Stretch Our Parks initiative, in partnership with the staff of Occoquan Bay NWR.
Join us for a morning bird walk on the trails of the Occoquan Bay National Wildlife Refuge. Your birding guide is Larry Meade, President of the Northern Virginia Bird Club and a member of the ASNV Adult Education Committee.
Meet at the Visitor Information Center, NOT the Central Parking Lot. After you enter the refuge, turn right at the sign for the Information Center (see below).
If you have binoculars, please bring them with you.
We will be documenting the birds we see in eBird and the leader will share the ebird list with you after the walk. If you don't already have an eBird account, you can sign up for a free one here: ebird.org/home
Newer and seasoned birders welcome.
This walk is FREE, but registration is required.
Occoquan Bay National Wildlife Refuge was established in June 1998 to provide habitat for migratory birds and endangered species. The refuge's diverse grassland, marsh and forest habitats attract a variety songbirds, raptors and waterfowl that depend on the area for food, nesting sites, and a place to rest.
