Sunday Bird Walks
Take a guided walk on the Gardens' nature trails with a Friend of the Garden volunteer and learn about Newfoundland birds. Bird watching sessions start at 8:00AM on Sunday mornings, 9:00am in October.
Please meet in the parking lot across the road from the main gate. The group leaves promptly on time, so please be there a few minutes early. Binoculars are helpful, and comfortable footwear is essential. Walks usually last 1.5 - 2 hours. Newcomers are welcome.
This program is offered by volunteers. Please check if the program is going ahead by calling the Garden the day before the program at 709-864-8590 (between 10:00AM-4:00PM). There is no fee to go on this guided walk.
2024 Guided Walks will start on May 5 and continue every week in May, then every second week starting June 2 until the end of October.
