Bird is the verb! Birding can be intimidating if you’ve never done it before, but this ranger led birding program will teach you all the basics about bird identification and spotting, including an easy walk out in the field to see which feathered friends you can find. This program will meet at the Interpretative Area at Picnic Shelter 2 and will take place entirely outdoors so participants should dress accordingly and bring water if necessary. This program is ideal for participants ages 8+.
