Montezuma Audubon Center to Join Cracker Box Palace For Guided Spring Birding Hikes
Welcome Back Migratory Songbirds with a Guided Hike
SAVANNAH, NY (April 16, 2024) – Want to see the bright blue of the Cerulean Warbler? Looking to add Scarlet Tanager to your life list? Or are you curious about exploring new birding spots along Lake Ontario and the greater Finger Lakes region?
The Montezuma Audubon Center is excited to expand our birding excursions to new communities! Join a Montezuma Audubon Center educator at Cracker Box Palace (6420 Shaker Road, North Rose, NY, 14516) for a series of 3 guided birding walks this spring season to see the bright colors of the migratory warblers that have made their way back up north.
This guided excursion will cover 2 miles of trail with one steep incline. Sturdy and comfortable shoes are strongly recommended. No prior birding experience needed. We will provide all binoculars and field guides. Cracker Box Palace at Historic Alasa Farms is an animal shelter that cares for horses, cows, sheep, goats, pigs, geese, chickens, rabbits, and more. Cracker Box Palace is also home to 10 miles of trails filled with great habitat for many birds, especially migratory warblers, and sits up against Sodus Bay, providing a great resource to waterfowl.
Here is a list of guided hike dates:
Wednesday, April 24 at 10am
Tuesday, May 7 at 5pm
Saturday, June 29 at 10am
We will meet at the parking lot across the street at Cracker Box Palace (6420 Shaker Road, North Rose, NY, 14516). Children under the age of 16 must be accompanied by an adult. Space is limited and registration is required for every hike. Hikes are $10/participant.
