Your Docent Naturalists, Bill and Marilyn Bauriedel will guide you to identify a variety of land birds, waterfowl and shorebirds that spend part of the winter here. You'll learn identification tips such as shape, size, sound, plumage, habitat, behavior and migration.and you'll be treated to up close views of birds using a spotting scope. This leisurely-paced walk is appropriate for all levels of birding experience, all ages welcome. Bring your binoculars if you have a pair.
