Birding is a lifelong habit and hobby! Birding Basics and a great hike along the trails at White Clay Creek State Park is a great way to learn about local birds and their habits. Meets at Nature Center

$5 per person, $20 per family. Call to register 302-368-6900.

Led by volunteer birding guides, beginner and experienced bird watchers will enjoy observing and learning about the bird species frequenting the refuge at this time of year.

Come prepared for the weather and expect to walk up to a mile. Bring your binoculars, a field guide, and spotting scope (the leader will have spotting scopes also). In case of light rain, a trip will still go, but will be cancelled in the event of heavy rain.

Binoculars will be available to borrow. Meet at the refuge office. Trips are free, open to the public, and last approximately three hours.

Space is limited now, due to popular demand, and pre-registration is required by calling the Prime Hook
National Wildlife Refuge office at (302) 684-8419.

Free for everyone!
