MONDAYS: Bird Song Walks at Whitaker Ponds
Come escape into the riparian woodland of Whitaker Ponds and learn Spring bird songs with us! We’ll pause often and pay attention to the words of birds like Song Sparrow, Bewick’s Wren, Spotted Towhee, and American Robin. It’s possible we’ll come across some Spring migrants from the south, like the Western Wood-Pewee, Black-headed Grosbeak, Bullock’s Oriole, and of course, some warblers thinking they’re so sweet sweet sweet.
Please join us if you’re a brand new birder, a long-standing birder, or anywhere in between——we’ll be glad to see you!
Join us Mondays, starting April 7 and ending May 19.
