Bird & Nature Adventures | Tenney Park
Event Description
Migration Magic Walk ~ Join Naturalist Paul Noeldner to look for and learn about migrating Spring birds and their travel stories. Tenney Park provides a popular 'rest stop' for birds heading north. We will take a walk to look and listen for Robins chirping in trees, Cardinals singing territorial songs, and Canada Geese resting on the water and honking in V 's overhead. How far did they go south for the winter, with no plane ticket? How did they find their way back, with no GPS map? Learn to use the Merlin app to identify birds by sight and sound and how to enter your bird sightings on eBird.
Nature-expert guided walks in Tenney Park along Lake Mendota and the Yahara River Parkway bike path through the Madison Isthmus are free, family-friendly and held the first Saturday of each month, from 2:30-4pm. The walk begins at the Tenney Beach parking lot, 1330 Sherman Avenue. No registration is required. No pets are allowed. Co-sponsored by Madison FUN Friends of Urban Nature, Madison Parks, Badgerland Bird Alliance Madison Audubon Society, Tenney-Lapham Neighborhood Association and Friends of the Yahara River Parkway
