We offer Birding Walks with our Ventures Birding Tour experts on the first Tuesday of every month. The next Birding Walk is scheduled for Tuesday, October 5, from 8:30 to 10:30 a.m.
The Blue Ridge Mountains are a beautiful place to be in any season and this walk is designed to explore some of the best spots to enjoy birding at the Arboretum. Bring your binoculars to spy on the area’s avian bounty. Open to beginning and experienced birders alike. The quiet of the Arboretum's Monthly Meditative Morning makes for a wonderful way to listen for forest sounds and bird song.
Kevin Burke was introduced to birding while taking an ornithology class and has been birding every day since. He has a degree in resource recreation and tourism from the University of Idaho and honed his birding skills teaching environmental education. Kevin has led birding trips across the country to Washington's San Juan Islands and Idaho's back country and abroad with trips to Portugal and Colombia. His lifelong journey has developed into a desire to share his knowledge and help others grow their skills.
