A rotating schedule of bird hikes will be in Washington County Parks in 2017, with the next one from 9 to 10 a.m. Aug. 5 at Big Marine Park Reserve. Guests can meet at the playground and park at the playground lot.
This program will help interested parties learn to identify the birds that call the St. Croix Valley home and contribute to citizen science data collection by completing bird count surveys with the guide. The surveys collected will assist the county’s natural resources team and related work in conjunction with the Lessard-Sams Outdoor Heritage Fund grant.broadstreet.zone(48036);
