Bird Walk at Bernard W. Baker Sanctuary

Learn How to Document Observations with eBird

 

Monday, May 17, 2021
9:30 am – 12 pm

 
Experience the wonder of spring bird song and peak migration!
This free bird walk will be co-led by Michigan Audubon Conservation Program Coordinator Linnea Rowse and Southwest Michigan Land Conservancy Stewardship Director Mitch Lettow.
We will walk on unpaved, mowed grass trails, with a few rolling hills. Walks are suitable for all ages and for any level of birding experience. Before the bird walk, we recommend loading the eBird app onto a smartphone or tablet device if you can. We will be actively helping everyone to learn how to use eBird to document birds at the sanctuary.
