Maricopa County Parks and Recreation: Guided Bird Walk
November 7, 2025 @ 8:00 am - 10:00 am
Free with Park Fee
Join Ranger Eric to look for and learn about resident and migratory birds of the Sonoran Desert on this easy walk. We will meet at the Nature Center and check out the nearby feeders and vegetation, before going over to the tree plantings around the turf area. If time allows, we may check out a trail down by the Gila River, which is a bit more moderate hiking. Please carry ample water, wear sturdy footwear, dress in layers, bring sun protection, and bring binoculars if you have them. However, some binoculars may be available to borrow at the Nature Center when it opens at 8:00am. Restrooms are located at the Nature Center.
