26 June 2023

Join me this coming Sunday for a bird and nature walk at:

Duck Hollow and the Lower Nine Mile Run Trail — 2 July 2023, 8:30am to 10:30am.

Meet at Duck Hollow parking lot at the end of Old Browns Hill Road.

We’ll see flightless Canada geese, swallows over the river, busy birds with young, midsummer flowers, and insects like this metallic-green bug on spotted knapweed. I’m hoping for an indigo bunting.

Dress for the weather and wear comfortable walking shoes. Bring binoculars, field guides and a scope for river watching if you have them. Don’t forget to bring water, sunscreen and a hat.

As of this moment, Scattered Thunderstorms are predicted for 2 July but we all know that could change for the better or worse so check the Events page before you come in case this outing is canceled for thunder or heavy downpours.

Hope to see you there.

p.s. This July has five Sundays so the next outing will be on Sunday 30 July.
