Birdblog outings resume this month with my first outing next Sunday at Duck Hollow.

Sunday 29 March 2026 — 8:30am – 10:30am

Duck Hollow

Meet at Duck Hollow parking lot at the end of Old Browns Hill Road. We’ll check the river for waterfowl, look for migrating songbirds along Nine Mile Run, and see many signs of Spring.

Duck Hollow can be excellent or just ho-hum. Migrating waterfowl have already left Pittsburgh but new songbirds are showing up every day. Brown thrashers are due here soon.

What will we see next Sunday? I’m counting on a great blue heron, above, and maybe a flyby of the local peregrine.

Dress for the weather and wear comfortable walking shoes. Bring binoculars, birding scopes and field guides if you have them.

Hope to see you there!

Sunday’s weather looks good so far but always check the Events Page before you come in case of cancellation.

    1. Viewing from below on the Duck Hollow Trail? I can make it optional at the end since for some it will be a long walk.
