The best way to get into birding is attend one of the programs we occasionally host for beginners. We also have citizen science programs that focus on bird counts that are useful for learning about the hobby.

The best places for birding at the park are on the trails around the Alexander Lakes. We also offer guided programs into the “Power of Flight” area, which is a restored grassland.

To begin, all you really need is a pair of binoculars and a field guide!
