Come out and enjoy an early morning of birding, bagels, and coffee in this monthly warm weather series! Grand Rapids Audubon Club member Emily Tornga will guide this hike to introduce the birds that call Blandford home in the summer. You’ll develop skills for recognizing calls and identifying the field marks of wetland, meadow, and forest dwellers, such as the quirky Pileated Woodpecker and the Belted Kingfisher. Head out on the trail with binoculars (bring your own or borrow from us) and see how many feathered friends you can find!About the instructor: Emily’s love for birding started 7 years ago when she spotted her very first Ruby-crowned Kinglet. Things really snowballed from there and she now boasts a life list with over 400 species. Nothing makes her happier than sharing her enthusiasm for birds and nature with others.
