The Sonoma County Regional Parks Department presents a fun and informative bird walk on Saturday, May 17th at Spring Lake Park in Santa Rosa led by Wade Belew.

Wade is a naturalist and avid birder, and has installed bird-nesting boxes in Spring Lake Park, the Laguna de Santa Rosa, and on numerous private properties throughout Sonoma County. Stops will be made during the walk to observe several bird nesting boxes and their inhabitants.

Participants should arrive at the Environmental Discovery Center, located just inside the Violetti Road entrance to Spring Lake Park, at 10am. This 2-hour walk will cover several miles. Pre-registration is appreciated. Participants should wear sturdy shoes and bring drinking water and binoculars. For more information or to register, call John Ryan, Volunteer Coordinator, at (707) 565-2041. Learn more about Sonoma County Regional Parks on the web at www.sonoma-county.org/parks.
