Birding at Alder Creek Farm
The Lower Nehalem Community Trust is hosting a birding event at Alder Creek Farm (35955 Underhill Lane in Nehalem) on May 26, from 9 a.m.-11 a.m., for everyone from experienced “birders” to those just learning the joys of birdwatching. This will be a family friendly event with an easy hike, but no dogs allowed.
James Billstine, a local birder, Neahkahnie Middle School teacher, and President of the Oregon Birding Association, will be leading a Birding and Ecology field trip through the Lower Nehalem Community Land Trust's property. The focus of the trip will be on birds, bird habitats, and the wonders of spring migration. There will be some walking through tall grass involved, and people are welcome to come and go as they please.
Bring: Rubber boots and walking gear, binoculars, bird book (National Geographic, Sibley Guide, Peterson Guide, etc.), rain gear if needed, water, and quiet voices!
