Fall Bird Migration Field Trip | FOUR

Join us for a morning of birding at Meadowood Pond where we have special access to this private location, a little haven for migratory and resident birds. We will explore around the pond’s open water and surrounding riparian habitats as well as patches of native shrubland, cottonwood forest, spruce trees, and open grassy meadows. Target species include warblers, various sparrows, waterfowl, and woodpeckers, with a decent chance of  less common birds that are occasionally seen here such as marsh wren, Cooper’s hawk, or lazuli bunting. 

This class requires advance registration to ensure appropriate planning for the field experience. 

Meeting location will be communicated to registered participants.
