The details

About this event

Wehr Birders is a welcoming event for anyone interested in birdwatching, whether you're a seasoned birder or just starting out. The hike takes place at Wehr Nature Center, a beautiful spot with diverse habitats that attract a variety of bird species. Led by knowledgeable volunteers, this event is a great opportunity to learn more about local birds and meet others who share your interest.

The hike is free, but a $5 parking fee applies to non-members of the Friends of Wehr. It's a good idea to arrive early to get a spot and bring along your binoculars for the best experience. This is a low-pressure, enjoyable way to spend a Sunday morning outdoors, surrounded by nature and fellow bird enthusiasts.
