The January Guided Bird Walk will be held at the UT Arboretum on Wednesday, January 21st from 9-11am. Please meet at the kiosk outside of the UT Arboretum Visitors Center. This guided walk will be led by a local ornithologist from the American Museum of Science and Energy in Oak Ridge. The event is limited to 16 participants. Please wear comfortable shoes, bring hiking poles and binoculars if you wish. There will be a limited supply of loaner binoculars on a first come basis at the hike.
"Bird watching is now North America's second most popular outdoor activity (second only to gardening).” Says AMSE educator Corky Witt. “There must be something to it—so come out with us and find out why!”
