Do you love being outdoors? Do you want to deepen your appreciation of nature by learning to identify the birds and plants around you?

With the onset of Summer, join Arvind Kumar, Ashok Jethanandani, and Vicki Silvas-Young for a beginner’s bird and plant identification walk through Lake Cunningham Park. This park provides food, water, and shelter for our local breeding birds, and its native garden is utilized by these breeding birds due to its habitat value. On this walk, you will learn to identify the common birds of our area, as well as the native plants they depend on for food and shelter. The distance is about 2 miles round trip on a level path while wearing your comfortable walking shoes. Please bring a hat, water, your bird and plant list, and binoculars.

This bird/plant walk is organized jointly by the California Native Plant Society, Santa Clara Valley Audubon Society, and the Open Space Authority, and is open to all, however space is limited.
