NAP Fall Shorebird Walk at Mary Beth Doyle

City of Ann Arbor Natural Area Preservation event: The mitigation wetland at Mary Beth Doyle is home to breeding shorebirds, Killdeer and Spotted Sandpipers, and migrating shorebirds like Greater and Lesser Yellowlegs, Solitary Sandpipers, Least Sandpipers and more, and this is prime migration time. Join NAP’s ornithologist, Juliet Berger, and other enthusiastic bird watchers for a tour of this bird-rich nature area. The paths around the wetlands are wheelchair accessible, but not the wooded area.

We’ll search the ponds for these species, and others, like the secretive Black-crowned Night-Herons that we believe nest nearby. If we have time, we’ll search the woods and trails for migrating Warblers and other songbirds.
