About the event

What is the difference between birdwatching and birding? Birding with Vernon walk leader, Vernon Janke, will talk about the art of birding, and the tools and techniques you need to improve your birding skills. Discover why birding is one of the most popular outdoor activities and use your new knowledge on a bird walk around the park.

The park will have binoculars and field guides for loan if you do not have your own.

Please note: The walk will take place on both paved and natural-surface trails. If you have mobility concerns, please complete the ADA Modification Request Form during the registration process so we can best support your participation.
