Bilingual Bird Walk
August 10 @ 9:30 am - 11:30 am
Included with admission or membership
Descanso Gardens is a birding hot spot! Join naturalist Thania Jacqueline Bejarano for this bilingual (English/Spanish) program to get started on your birding journey on Saturday, August 10.
We’ll first meet in the Courtyard at 9:30am, head into a classroom to learn some birding basics, and then it’s off to the gardens to observe birds in their natural habitats.
Attendees are encouraged to bring binoculars, but don’t worry if you don’t have any – sets will be available to borrow during the event while supplies last. Please wear comfortable shoes and weather-appropriate outerwear, and feel free to bring a water bottle.
Meets in the Courtyard. Free with admission, no registration required.
