Join Detroit Bird Alliance and Arboretum Detroit for an introduction to birding that is perfect for anyone with minimal birding experience!
About this Event

Join us for a walk focused on an introduction to birding led by Detroit Bird Alliance Conservation Coordinator, Ava Landgraf. We will discuss all the basics such as how to get started birding, when and where to look for birds, how to use binoculars and ID guides, learning bird behavior and field marks, practicing appreciation with and without species identification, as well as learning some helpful tips and tricks.

The walk will start and end at Circle Forest(3301 Palmer St Detroit) and walk through Callahan Park.

Circle Forest is a habitat restoration project created by Arboretum Detroit and Callahan Park is a Detroit Bird City park supported by Detroit Bird Alliance. These sites are exciting examples of urban greenspace providing habitat for many bird and other wildlife species.

We will have binoculars for attendees to borrow.

Bathroom facilities are not available.

After registering, you will receive Detroit Bird Alliance's bi-monthly e-newsletter, Flyway Express.
