Programs

We're doing something special for our monthly bird walk in September! After our regular 8AM Second Saturday Early Birds bird walk at Fontainebleau State Park, we'll keep the party going with bird walks around the Northshore! Our schedule is as follows:

8AM- Fontainebleau State Park. Meet by the Splash Pad.
10AM- Boy Scout Road @ Big Branch NWR.
Noon- Northlake Nature Center.
2PM- Fairview State Park (Meet by the Swamp Boardwalk).
4PM- Neighborwoods Park.

Feel free to attend as many walks as you'd like. Attend all five and receive an official Pelican Park hat!
