Start your day with the sights and sounds of nature! Join Berks Nature and the birders of Baird Ornithological Society for a relaxed and refreshing morning of birdwatching, light refreshments, and bird-loving community. We’ll begin with a casual mingle over coffee and pastries, followed by a few brief, engaging presentations on digital birding resources, cell phone photography tips, and birding around Berks. We’ll wrap up the morning with a guided bird hike through the park—perfect for beginners and seasoned birders alike. Bring your binoculars or borrow a pair from us (limited), and let’s see who’s singing in the trees!
