Want to learn more about our local birds and how to identify them? Joppa Flats education interns will take you on an easy walk and introduce you to a variety of birds, from egrets and herons in the salt marsh, to ducks and shorebirds along the river, to songbirds and hummingbirds at our feeders. We’ll provide binoculars and field guides along with tips on how to use them. Get started on the hottest new hobby around – birding!
