Pasadena Audubon Bird Sit at the Gamble House.

The Gamble House is pleased to participate in WALKTOBER PASADENA, the 8th Annual Celebration of Walking in Pasadena!

The Bird Sit, led by PAS Board Member Deb Tammearu, will be a tranquil hour of stillness, focusing on identifying the birds that surround you. This is a perfect way to go birding if you prefer to remain still and love great architecture.

Please bring water, sunscreen, a lawn chair or blanket and a hat.

• The Bird Sit is approximately 1-hour and begins at 8:00 a.m. on the rear lawn of the Gamble House, under the big oak.
• There is an accessible path to the north of the Gamble House Bookstore that leads to a pocket garden. The rear lawn is not accessible.
• Bring your binoculars, we’ll also have some to loan out. The Bird Sit will only be in English.

The Pasadena Audubon Society will provide free pamphlets on birding, the organization and how to identify local birds during the event.

• We encourage walking, biking or taking transit to all Walktober events. Check the Pasadena Transit and Metro websites for transit options. Google maps walking and biking directions can also be helpful.
• City installed bike racks are available at or near the start location.
• Street parking is available at or near the start location. Check the parking signs for restrictions or pay options.
• Paid parking is not available in the area.

This event is part of Walktober Pasadena 2025, made possible by the City of Pasadena Department of Transportation, Day One, and the Pasadena Complete Streets Coalition.
