Celebrating Bird Migration

October 8, 2017 @ 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm

Explore the wonderful world of birds in a beautiful place! See a live falcon and other birds of prey up close and view birds in the wild through spotting scopes and binoculars. Learn about migration, marshes and the role avian friends play in our lives. Enjoy games, art projects and a scavenger hunt. These and other activities will be featured at the 4rd Annual “Celebrating Bird Migration” at Lafayette’s Waneka Lake and Greenlee Wildlife Preserve Open Space.
The 1/3 mile walking path between the parking area and Greenlee Wildlife Preserve will feature several local organizations with great activities and displays to offer! In addition to Lafayette Open Space, the following groups will be on hand to entertain and educate: Environment for the Americas (home of International Migratory Bird Day), Wild Wings Environmental Education, the Lafayette Rec Center, the Lafayette Historical Society, Boulder County Audubon Society, Thorne Nature Experience, the American Birding Association Lafayette Youth Advisory Committee, Empowerment Center of East County, JAX Outdoor Gear and Broomfield Open Space (with the Broomfield Bird Club). The Parent Engagement Network is also a co-sponsor. This free, public event is suitable for all ages and will also feature an array of fine door prizes.

This program begins at the Waneka Lake East parking lot, where Emma St. ends at Caria Drive in Lafayette. For more information, contact Martin Ogle at Martin@EntrepreneurialEarth.com or 720-612-0506.
