Bird & Nature Adventures are 90-minute, volunteer-led events for all ages, held year-round in any weather. Participants learn about birds and nature, with topics and leaders changing throughout the year. Some events include biking or canoeing, with a few happening on a pontoon. Meeting locations and times are generally consistent but may vary. Be sure to check individual events for details. Registration is not required. Participants should dress for the weather and are encouraged to bring binoculars or cameras. Pets, including well-behaved dogs, are not allowed.
