This bird walk will be a loop of Bay View Trail. This approximately 1 mile trail is packed dirt and mostly flat with two sets of stairs near the wetlands.

We will meet up across from the children's playground. Follow signs for the Visitor's Center, then bear left when you see the brightly colored playground.

Newer and seasoned birders welcome.

If you have binoculars, please bring them with you.

Registration is recommended but not required. Register here: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/bird-walk-in-mason-neck-state-park-tickets-830404782057?aff

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: https://ebird.org/home
