Guided Nature Walk: Birds, Bees and Blooms
Join us for an energetic walk through the woodlands and to the pond to immerse yourself in all that the season has to offer. Members of the North Shore Audubon Society will help us identify migrating birds, and our nature guide Hildur Palsdottir will teach us about the trees, shrubs and flowers that have recently bloomed. Our youngest guests will have the opportunity to play Spring Bingo as we walk, and afterward all guests can create a seed bomb with native wildflowers to plant in our woods or take home. This walk is geared for adults and children 5+ but all are welcome
