Bird & Nature Adventures | Tenney Park

Groundhogs in Love ~ Join Naturalist Paul Noeldner on a free fun educational family friendly guided walk to learn about Groundhogs, Muskrats, Chipmunks and other cute critters that sleep through most of Winter but sometimes wake up on warmer days to get a snack - or go Looking for Love!  We will look for and learn to identify den locations and critter tracks and signs.  Enjoy hot cocoa and smores around a campfire after the walk.

See the Wild Tenney on Facebook for more info and post your pictures and comments!  Free, welcoming, healthy, fairly accessible, family and kid friendly, educational, no pets.  Children under 18 must be accompanied by an adult.  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 1:30-3pm.
