Birds of a Feather: Nest Architecture 101

Explore the world of birding by joining the Birds of a Feather program at Eugene T. Mahoney State Park’s newly renovated James Family Conservatory and Nature Center.

This is a program for birders of all ages and levels. We introduce a different birding topic each session to begin the program. When weather permits, we will head outdoors for a hike or time in the birding area. The program runs approximately 60-90 minutes and is offered on select Tuesdays at 9:30 a.m. on a monthly basis.

On June 3, the topic will be “Nest Architecture 101”. Participants will discover how birds make nests unique to their species, then go on a hike and observe nests around the park.

This program is free but a 2025 park entry vehicle permit is required.
