Beginning Birding: The Baltimore Oriole

Join experienced birder, Seth Chapman, on a birdwatching hike through Kleinstuck Preserve. This month’s featured bird is the Baltimore Oriole.

Before taking to the trails of Kleinstuck Preserve, there will be a short discussion on the Baltimore Oriole. Come learn how to identify this bird using markers such as shape, size, habitat, and more!

During our hike we will attune to our surroundings, looking and listening to the many species of birds which grace our presence. What can we learn by observing our feathered friends? In contemplation, we will deepen our understanding of ourselves, and the environment around us.

Come to hike in community, sharpen your identification skills, build your life list, and expand your bird knowledge! All skill levels are welcome. There will also be complementary chai.

Registration covers one adult, and individual registrations are not shareable between two or more individuals. Birders 10 and under are welcome to attend free of charge. This hike will take place rain or shine.

⁠Please bring a pair of binoculars and a travel mug for complementary chai.⁠
