About this Event

Curious about the incredible wetland species we have here in the Pacific Northwest exclusively during the winter? Join professional naturalist and experienced birder Kate Brown for a relaxed Sunday morning bird walk at Fir Island Reserve. We will chat about what to look and listen for while birding, discuss some of the common wetland species we are likely to spot and what makes them unique- then set out with our binoculars and scope to see what amazing birds we can spot! Bring your coffee, donuts, and any binoculars you might have (I own a few to share!) Species commonly sighted here include scaup, gadwall, snowgeese, tundra swans, and great blue herons.

Accessibility Note: We will be meeting at Fir Island Farm Rerserve in Skagit County, which is about a 45 minute drive from downtown Bellingham. The entirety of the fail is completely flat packed dirt/gravel, and there are bathroom facilities at the trailhead. Ages16+ (check back in, as I also host all-ages/family-friendly walks as well)
