Bird & Nature Adventures | Tenney Park
Event Description
Seeing the Small Stuff ~ Join Naturalist Julie Melton for a fun family friendly easy nature hike to look for and learn about the small things in nature all around us, like bushy bearded acorns from a burr oak, the many colors of autumn leaves, and the tiny balls that form on stems of native plants with insect larvae tucked safely inside waiting through winter for Spring.
Nature-expert guided walks in Tenney Park along Lake Mendota and the Yahara River Parkway bike path through the Madison Isthmus are free, family-friendly and held the first Saturday of each month, from 2:30-4pm. The walk begins at the Tenney Beach parking lot, 1330 Sherman Avenue. No registration is required. No pets are allowed. Co-sponsored by Madison FUN Friends of Urban Nature, Madison Parks, Badgerland Bird Alliance Madison Audubon Society, Tenney-Lapham Neighborhood Association and Friends of the Yahara River Parkway
