Join us on our weekly naturalist-led hike at Mentor Marsh at the end of the Headlands Birding Festival.
On this afternoon bird walk, we’ll search for early-fall migrating birds (and maybe monarchs, too). The marsh’s diversity of native plants and habitat provides food and shelter for both migratory and resident bird species. How many can we find? Birders of all experience levels are welcome—group birding is a great way to learn!
