Bird Walk: Spring Migration

Bird Walk: Spring Migration

Saturday, April 27 - 7:30am

Expert birder, Gregg Gorton, will lead participants on a bird walk through the beautiful grounds of West Laurel Hill so we can watch and listen for migrants returning north to breed.

Attendees will meet at the Conservatory on the grounds (215 Belmont Avenue, Bala Cynwyd, PA) and are encouraged to reconvene after the walk at the Conservatory for coffee and doughnuts. This is free event but RSVP is required. Donations will be accepted to support the Lower Merion Conservancy.
