Birdability

Join Birdability Executive Director Cat Fribley for a 45-minute presentation introducing Birdability and the growing movement to make birding more accessible and inclusive for people with disabilities and other health concerns.

This talk will explore what accessible birding looks like in practice, why access matters, and how thoughtful design and community care can open the outdoors to more people. The presentation will be followed by an accessible birding event on the grounds at Indian Creek Nature Center, combining movement along trails designed for access with opportunities for stationary birding.

The outing will take place rain or shine, and we warmly welcome brand new birders, long-time birders, and everyone in between. This event is designed with disabled birders and people with health concerns in mind, and we invite participants to share any specific access needs so we can do our best to support a meaningful and enjoyable experience. Feel free to pack a picnic lunch to enjoy after the program.

Pre-registration strongly recommended; space is limited. $5/person
