Equestrian Parking

When

April 8, 2023. 10:00 a.m. - 11:00 a.m.

Spring has arrived and so have many of our migrating visitors. We’ll tap into our senses as we use sight, sound, and even touch to become more familiar with some of Virginia's feathered beauties. During this guided meadow walk, you'll practice identifying these colorful creatures by listening to snippets of their songs and observing their unique behavior.

Children and adults of all ages are welcome. The walk will be up to one mile depending on the ages and abilities of the group. We will move at an easy pace on a flat meadow trail. Bring binoculars if you have them.

Meet at the Trailhead/Equestrain parking lot.
