SUMMARY:Second Saturday Bird Walk
DESCRIPTION:Don’t monad-knock it until you’ve monad-tried it: join Katherine Tombs for a bird walk around Pilot Mountain’s peak! We will be meeting at the summit parking lot at 8:30 AM. We’ll plan to take the short jaunt to Little Pinnacle Overlook\, and then take the .8 mile moderate Pilot Knob Trail that circumnavigates the pinnacle.

All ages welcome. See you there!

SUMMARY:Fourth Monday Bird Outing
DESCRIPTION:Join Chris Marsh at Horizons Park for our Fourth Monday Bird Walk. We’ll meet in the main parking area where there’s a very convenient restroom in the adjacent picnic area. We will explore both forest and field in search of summer breeders such as orioles\, vireos\, warblers\, Blue Grosbeaks and Indigo Buntings. These bird walks are for people who are just learning about birds as well as those who have been birding for years. \nPlease wear sturdy closed-toe shoes (preferably waterproof) as we will be walking through a hilly\, grassy area that might be wet with dew. As this is a mid-summer walk\, it is a good idea to bring water.
