LAWRENCE PARK BIRD WALK

Join Karen Nichols and Jane Adams on Sunday, May 15 from 8-10:30 AM for a birding hike through the riparian habitat and open areas of Kalispell’s Lawrence Park. We will walk approximately 2 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 Calliope and Rufous
Hummingbird. Please come prepared with rain gear and footwear for possible muddy conditions along the
trails. Bathrooms are available at the park. Please bring binoculars and bird ID books or apps, if you have
them. To sign up or get more information, contact Karen Nichols at karenben@montanasky.net or 406-
