Saturday, Oct. 20 Join Jim Olson on an early morning bird walk at Tualatin Hills Nature Park. Listen for calls and search for birds with a focus on fall migrants. Meet in front of the Interpretive Center. Bring binoculars and a bird book if you have them. In autumn, thousands of ducks, geese and swans fly over the region's wetlands.
Waterfowl are among the region's most abundant and diverse groups of wintering birds.
Join Metro naturalist and expert birder James Davis to find out who's who in this large group of beautiful birds. Recommended field guide is Field Guide to Western Birds, 3rd. Ed. by Roger Tory Peterson. Meet in room 370 at Metro Regional Center. By late October there should be some of the wintering waterfowl and birds of prey at the lakes as well as all the resident birds.
