This is an accessible field trip along the paved Boise River Greenbelt. The Greenbelt is high above the river affording birders a view of the tops of the trees and bushes, the Boise River, the basalt canyons walls and the sky. Bald Eagles are often seen the winter and migrants will have arrived at this habitat oasis to enjoy the berries. Your leader, RL, has birded this area often and knows it well.
All levels are welcome. Binoculars will be available if needed.
Participants younger than 12 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. Participants younger than 18 must have a parent/guardian sign the liability release.
Time: 10:00am - 12:00pm
Meeting Place: Diane Moore Nature Center parking lot
