A 90-minute introductory bird walk will be offered on May 31, 7 to 8:30 a.m., in Brockport’s Corbett Park and along the Erie Canal. Registration is required at https://tinyurl.com/2tr2dfsk.
No experience is needed to participate. Bird walks are open to participants age 10 and up. Those under 18 must be accompanied by an adult. An ASL Interpreter can be requested with four days advance notice by emailing otcbrockport@gmail.com.
Attendees will be shown how to use binoculars/monoculars to spot our feathered friends, and learn about the common birds in this area. It’s the perfect way to enjoy nature, learn something new, and have a great time outdoors. Whether you’re a budding birder or just looking for a fun activity, everyone is welcome.
Meet at the pavilion at Corbett Park, 155 Clark Street, Brockport. Parking is available in a small lot on Smith Street by the bridge. Dress for the weather, wear comfortable shoes that can get muddy or wet, and bring your own water bottle. There will be a limited number of optics to share, so bring a pair of binocular/monoculars if you own them. Leave your pets at home (except for service dogs).
The Village of Brockport is offering this free adventure through a partnership with the NYS Canal Corp and New York Power Authority and their On the Canals program.
Other bird walks will be offered in September to take advantage of fall migration. Follow Village of Brockport on Eventbrite.com for information about additional On the Canals events.
