Maricopa County Parks and Recreation: Birding “Big Sit”

Would you like to learn more about birdwatching and community science? Join Ranger Eric for a “Big Sit” style bird count at the picnic area in the palm grove behind the Visitor Center as we learn about birds and learn about community science, using eBird. We will discuss basic bird identification tips and counting methods. Some binoculars are available to borrow. This program is geared towards all physical abilities and ages, and the trail down to the picnic area is barrier-free. Picnic tables are available to sit at and other benches are located around Palm Lake Trail nearby.

MEETING LOCATION: Picnic area behind Visitor Center at the beginning of the trails.

Limit 15 participants. To register, please call the Visitor Center at 602-506-2930 ext. 9.
