During the months of May, June, and July, bird experts from the local chapter of the Audubon Society will lead bird-watching tours through The Arboretum’s gardens. Birdwalks take place every Saturday from 7:30 to 9:00 AM. With over 2,000 species of plants and a permanent water source, the gardens provide an ideal refuge for migrating birds. The wide diversity of plant species attracts a wonderful array of birds to The Arboretum. Binoculars and guidebooks may be borrowed during the tours and checklists are available for all participants. The guided birdwalks are free and open to all ages.
