LAWRENCE PARK BIRD WALK

Join Karen Nichols on this birding walk through the riparian habitat and open areas of Kalispell’s Lawrence Park. We will walk approximately two to three leisurely miles through forest and paved trails near the Stillwater River and sloughs. We hope to see and hear a variety of resident birds and recent spring migrants. Highlights might include: Sora Rail, Ruby-crowned Kinglet, Common Yellowthroat, Pileated Woodpecker, Red-tailed Hawk, Osprey, Northern Waterthrush, Black-headed Grosbeak, Gray Catbird, Great Blue Heron, Wood Duck, Vaux’s swift, Tree Swallow and Rufous Hummingbird.

Please come prepared with rain gear and footwear for possible muddy conditions along the trails. Bathrooms available at the park. Please bring binoculars and bird ID books or apps, if you have them. Meet at the Lawrence Park Picnic Shelter.
