Programs
The early birder gets the bacon! Come enjoy coffee with cardinals, OJ with jays, and pastries with pileated at the newly renovated DeFries House. During breakfast, visitors can watch birds flock to the feeders (while feeding themselves), learn about wintering species in our area, along with I.D. tips on birds that swoop in for a sunrise snack. After the meal, birders feeling up to it will have the chance to stretch their wings on a brief guided walk around the calendar garden.
Come for the food, stay for the birds.
