FIELD TRIP
Leader: Molly Moore
Traditional birding can sometimes be competitive and list driven. Slow birding offers a different approach focused on fine tuning your birding skills and forging a deeper connection with birds and their habitat. Join us for a relaxing meander along the paths of this beautiful park with its stately trees, open fields, woodland edges and fascinating history. We’ll make several stops to closely observe birds preparing for migration and study their song and calls. We welcome beginners wanting to ease into birding, nature journalers seeking an opportunity to sketch, and experienced birders looking for a closer connection to birds and nature.
Easy terrain, much of it on paved paths and pedestrian roadways.
Loaner binoculars available if you do not have your own.
Restrooms in the park, but not near our starting point.
