5/16/2026 - Spring Migration Hike Spring migration marks the return of birds to their nesting grounds. Join Allison Middlemass, Coordinator of Community Conservation Programs, for a guided Spring migration birding hike where we will use binoculars to get a good view of birds, see the various habitats that our birds depend on, and discuss the ways scientists are tracking birds to help protect them. Binoculars will be provided for folks without their own to borrow for the duration of the hike. On the morning of the hike, we will meet in the visitor parking lot at 9:30 AM. Pre-registration is required by Noon on Friday, May 15, 2026 (space is limited). Handicapped parking by the barn. Accessible bathroom on site.
