Night Hike – American Woodcock
This month we will be searching for signs of the American Woodcock. These odd and delightful birds put on a spring aerial display in the meadows of Taft Reserve. Come learn the reasons behind their behaviors and observe for yourself these amazing “shorebirds of the forest”. We will gather in the parking lot and hike to the top of the hill and around to observe nature at night. Ages 5+
