Exploring Spring Birds and Wildflowers In-Person

Spring is the best time to learn to identify our Lycoming County birds and wildflowers. On May 22, 10am-noon, we will meet at the Robert Porter Allen Natural Area in South Williamsport where local bird and wildflower experts will lead us on a leisurely walk as we learn together.   This program is intended for children ages 5-12 who want to learn more about how to identify common birds and wildflowers in our area. Parents are encouraged to participate with their children.   Binoculars will be available to borrow during the program.  This is a natural area and trails can be wet or muddy.  Please wear appropriate clothing and footwear.   
 Please register everyone who will attend.  
Please meet at The Robert Porter Allen Natural Area.    Please park in the parking lot at the ballfields near the park.
