Getting Started In Bird Watching

Meet at 9:30 am – at the Park Info Kiosk at the last parking lot. Level of difficulty – EASY If you want to start bird watching or have started and want some help, practice, or encouragement, this event is for you. The focus is on basic bird identification techniques. We will do a walk-a-bout to find and identify birds. We will also cover optical equipment, guidebooks, and other aids useful to bird watchers. This event is for those new to bird-watching; however, experienced birders are welcome to attend to help beginners. Bring binoculars. Some loaner binoculars will be available if you have yet to. Bring lunch and water. This is a walk everyone can enjoy, even those using mobility aids. Leader: Peter Oickle. Call/text 902- 499- 4114 Because this is a bird-related event, dogs are not permitted.
