Bird Stroll with Ranger Jonah

PARTNER EVENT Come walk with Ranger Jonah McDonald, the DeKalb County Park Naturalist at Mason Mill Park, to see what birds are active at Mason Mill Park. All levels of birders are welcome. Binoculars and comfortable footwear are recommended. We will gather in the parking lot near the Mason Mill playground and walk the perimeter of the park looking for birds in this transitional area. Our route then takes us along the boardwalk that leads to the wetlands where we'll continue birding. At the end, we'll recap all the bird species we've observed. Ranger Jonah all provides instruction on binocular skills and bird identification by sight and sound. The full program lasts 2.5 hours. Find Ranger Jonah in the parking lot near the Mason Mill playground (1340 McConnell Dr). Wear comfortable footwear, dress for the weather, and bring a refillable water bottle. Public restrooms are available near the playground and bathrooms are available at DeKalb Tennis Center when the Pro Shop is open (top of the purple pyramid). This program content is designed for adults and older children, but all ages are welcome. This program is NOT appropriate for dogs, so please leave your pup at home. Walking distance: 2 miles. This program will be canceled if there is rain or other inclement weather. This walk is half under shaded tree canopy and half in full sun.
