The second walk of each month (marked with an asterisk*) is fully accessible and includes an ASL interpreter. For all hikes, meet in the Nature Center parking lot. Binoculars are available. Rain or shine. Accessible hikes will be canceled if the paths are covered in snow/ice.
Free. $5 suggested donation. Registration required.
Sunday 10.9 | Dawn–Dusk | Nature Center APT Boardwalk
Bird-watching teams from all corners of the world will enter 17-foot diameter circles and record every bird they see or hear during a 24-hour period, beginning at midnight. This “tailgate party for birders” was founded by the New Haven (CT) Bird Club 26 years ago. Here at the Nature Center, we will count from dawn to dusk. Over the 17 years NCSL has participated, 94 species have been recorded. Stop by and say hello or register to participate. Free.
