Discovery Center Birding Trail
Our trail system features clearly marked paths and informative signage to guide you along the way, offering helpful tips on identifying birds and their behaviors. As you walk, listen for the melodic calls of warblers, the fluttering of sparrows, and the distant cry of hawks soaring overhead. With breathtaking views and the chance to spot both migratory and resident birds, the Discovery Center birding trail is a must-visit for nature lovers and birding enthusiasts.
Birding Habitat Enclosure
Take a seat on one of the comfortable benches, and enjoy the soothing sights and sounds as local and migratory birds flit about, feeding and interacting with their environment. The area is thoughtfully designed with a range of feeders, including seed, suet, and nectar stations, ensuring a diverse array of bird visitors throughout the year.
