Early Evening Birding at the Arboretum
Morris Arboretum of the University of Pennsylvania
Wed, Sep 19, 2012, 4pm - 6:30pm
Tickets: Members: $25 Non-Members: $30
The early evening is a great time to see birds, when most visitors have left for the day and quiet descends on the Arboretum. Birders at any level of experience are welcome. We will visit a variety of habitats that attract birds including the wetlands, meadows, and woodlands. We will also bird at the Arboretum’s Bloomfield Farm, an area not normally open to the public. We hope to see birds like bluebirds, tree swallows, and eastern kingbirds. We will also observe migratory song birds such as warblers and sparrows and may see shorebirds that often visit the wetlands at this time of year. Ruth will provide a spotting scope and field guides. Bring binoculars.
Location:
100 East Northwestern Avenue Philadelphia, PA In the Chestnut Hill section of Philadelphia Park in the meadow next to the entrance kiosk.
