SUMMARY:Autumn Avian Adventures – Murmuration & Migrations
DESCRIPTION:Natural Lands’ diverse habitats sustain a variety of avian species. We’ll look for migratory and resident birds\, including songbirds\, raptors\, and more. \nBring your binoculars and join us for a seasonal walk around one of our preserved open spaces. \nThe songbirds\, raptors\, waterfowl\, and shorebirds—about 300 recorded species—that rely on habitats under Natural Lands care are not just beautiful but also essential to the health of our planet. What’s more\, they are environmental indicators\, warning us of climate shifts and other ecosystem changes. \nLearn more about what Natural Lands is doing for bird conservation. \nCan’t attend this one?
