Overview

Many bird species migrate into North America after spending the winter in Central and South America. Birds often stay in Wisconsin to nest; others stop here to feed before traveling farther. Bird lover Rick Fare will lead a bird walk on the Siena grounds during a peak migration period. We may see orioles, hummingbirds, tanagers and some of the 35 species of the colorful warblers.  If you have binoculars, please bring them.  If there is inclement weather, Rick will lead an indoor program on how to attract birds to your own back yard.
