Spring Birding at Lighthouse West Natural Area

Saturday, May 14th | 8:00am

We’re about to enter the peak of the spring bird migration, when the tip of the peninsula becomes a very active location for both nesting and migrating species.

Join Conservancy Docents as we explore all habitats on the property to see which birds have arrived. We’ll be looking for a variety of warblers, Indigo Buntings, Scarlet Tanagers, possibly a Black-billed Cuckoo, and many more.

Meet at the parking lot, at 8:00 AM, and bring a pair of binoculars. Good walking shoes are advised, as the trail down the bluff to the observation deck can be slippery.
