About the event

Expand your knowledge of our local flora and fauna by exploring a different area of the park each month. Join park staff as they "nerd out" over a different group of animals, plants, fungi or other living things each month. Help collect data for our Biodiversity Project on iNaturalist while increasing your own identification skills.

This month we will be doing some bird watching around the park. Learn how to identify some of our common species and see what else we can find.

This program takes place outdoors and may include walking distances of up to one mile on both paved and natural paths. Please dress for the weather, including sturdy, closed-toed shoes. Participants may request program modifications during the registration process.

Schedule: May 29, 2026 Friday from 1pm to 2pm

Duration: 1 hour

Ages: 10 yrs +,
