Local Bird Hikes

The Nina Mason Pulliam EcoLab is a wonderful place to bird watch, with over 165 different species sightings being recorded since 2002. No experience is necessary, and the hike will be led by one of the bird experts at Marian. The only things that are necessary are binoculars and a little bit of patience! We will meet at the St. Francis statue just west of the Allison Mansion on the Marian campus at 8:00 am every Wednesday starting September 1 and ending November 17. Bring water to drink and wear comfortable shoes. No reservation is required

Fall migration is lively and full of warblers, raptors, sparrows, and other songbirds. During the walk, expert birder Don Gorney will point out birds seen and heard and provide details on how to identify cryptic fall warblers, drab flycatchers, and LBJ’s, or Little Brown Jobs, also known as sparrows. Walks are approximately two hours on relatively even terrain. There is no fee for the walk but standard gate admission applies. Meet in the northeast corner of the Delaware Lake parking lot at 8:00 am.

Each Sunday year-round at Eagle Creek Park. Meet us at 9:00 am at the Ornithology Center. This event is free, though a gate fee to Eagle Creek Park applies.
