Ben Nickley, of Berkshire Bird Observatory, leads a weekly bird walk right in the town of Great Barrington. Come explore GBLC's wonderful Riverfront Trail with us in pursuit of birds while enjoying the onset of spring in good company.
Our Spring Bird Walk series will run from April through May. Our group meets outside the Berkshire Food Co-op at 5:00 PM each Tuesday. Learn to find, identify and more fully appreciate our migratory and resident birds on these community bird walks. Meet other wonderful people while exploring outside together! Bring binoculars if you have them--if not, we can share. Everyone is welcome! Beginners are especially encouraged to join.
These bird walks are free and open to all. Please consider supporting BBO's nonprofit work by making a donation here.
