Heard Museum Second Saturday Bird Walk
February 12, 2022 @ 8:00 am - 9:30 am
Birding in the Heard Wildlife Sanctuary on the Second Saturday
Second Saturday Bird Walks in the Heard Wildlife Sanctuary are offered by volunteers from the Prairie & Timbers Audubon Society (PTAS). These bird walks are intended to help beginning and intermediate birders with bird spotting and identification techniques. There are also plenty of opportunities provided for participants to ask questions from experienced birders. Prairie, woodland, and wetland habitats are included in these walks.
Second Saturday Bird Walks are free to Heard members. General Admission for non-members.
Over 220 bird species have been observed at the Heard and 61 species have been documented nesting at the Heard National Science Museum and Wildlife Sanctuary. Whether you consider yourself a birder, a birdwatcher or a casual nature observer, the diversity and health of the different habitats at Heard creates the perfect opportunity to observe a number of bird species, both resident and migrant.
