We’ll hopefully catch some migrating raptors overhead, look for fall songbirds passing through the area, and identify other resident groups like corvids and woodpeckers. October brings bluebirds, bobolinks, sparrows and Eastern Meadowlarks in the grasses, with kestrels, harriers and even Bald Eagles overhead! Some binoculars will be available to borrow, but please bring your own if you can! We’ll meet in front of the Park’s tennis court.
