Dawn Song Summer Bird Walk

Description

Before most people are out of bed, Drumlin Farm's birds are awake and singing. Take a front-row seat to the performance on a sunrise walk, where you'll get to experience the sanctuary before normal visiting hours when many birds are most active. You'll hear dozens of species including flycatchers, warblers, and tanagers calling at once, each with its own purpose and pattern.

Guided by a naturalist, learn to identify birds by song, understand why they call at dawn, and sharpen your ear in the peace of the early morning.

Checking registration status.
