Winter Wonder Land - Bird Walk

This is a bird walk meant for all generations where as usual we look for birds and connect to nature. Our theme this month is the wonder of winter. How do birds survive the winter? What do they do and where do they go? How do we humans get through the winter?

During the walk we will leisurely walk to observe birds, and while we go we will also experience sharings by participants, conversations, reflections, and nature practices. Our goal is to connect to nature and to each other, nourishing our lives, relationships, and the earth.

We will start at the ranger station, and then walk to the beginning of Desportes Island Nature trail. From there we will take the right loop where I recently saw many species of birds feeding on emerging and flying insects.

There is a $3 charge for adults to enter the park, payable at the entrace. If you would like to contribute to bird conservation and future bird walks, you can donate at One Earth Conservation that sponsors these walks.

Please bring comfortable walking shoes and water if you need it. There will be some bugs about so you might want to use repellent.

If you get lost, you can call LoraKim at 914-325-9574.

LoraKim is a renown avian conservationist who hopes through these walks we will build a just and compassionate community together made up of those who respond to this form of mindfulness practice.
