About this Event
Urban Birding: Beginner Bird Watching Tour
Join us the 4th Sunday of the month for beginner bird watching. You'll get an introduction to using binoculars, learn about the local and migratory birds, and get info on current restoration projects.
Our guides will show you tips and tricks for spotting birds. You can test out different views through our binoculars, monoculars, and scope. Our tablet adapter makes it easy for everyone to view birds together. Help us collect data for scientific use and take home a list of local birds to keep an eye out for next time.
We will be making a loop around downtown, stopping along the way to observe how birds have adapted to live in urban areas. As well as talk about how Olympia’s estuaries have changed, are changing, and the effect it has on birds.
