More About Birding Hike at Gabis Arboretum 🐦

Come join a family friendly guided hike (kids are welcome) with long time Gabis volunteers John and Jo Brugos. They have been running the bluebird monitoring program at Gabis for years and are avid birders. May is a time of migration for many bird species, so we will be looking for migratory birds as well as year-round species. Space is limited so register soon if you are interested. We will meet at the Depot for the hike. Please do not bring dogs because it will make the birds nervous, and we will not see as many. Bring binoculars if you like.
