Join Chris Gunter and Andy Filtness for a Spring Migration tour of Commons Ford Prairie in support of Travis Audubon’s Birdathon. Spending time in varied habitats, we’ll be looking for both early arrival summer residents (Blue Grosbeaks, Summer Tanagers, several Flycatchers) and also migrating warblers (Chestnut sided, Magnolia, Blackburnian) and raptors (Broad-winged Hawk, Swanson’s Hawk, Mississippi Kite). Over 190 species have been reported in the month of May at Commons Ford in recent years and hopefully we’ll find at least 50 of those during our event.
We encourage supporters of our team who cannot participate in-person pledge $1 for each species we get. Please contact Caley Zuzula at caley@travisaudubon.org if you’re interested in doing this.
