Exciting news!

It is with great joy that we welcome back some of our Spring migrants in late February/early March! To prepare for their return we have asked local Spring Mountain birder and Ursinus College Lecturer, Marcia Clouser, to join us Wednesday evening, March 12 at 7:00 pm at the Perkiomen Watershed Conservancy’s brownstone barn. During her presentation we will have a chance to view images of ducks, hawks, eagles and passerines whose return heralds the rising temperatures of an impatient spring. Marcia’s love for birds is well-known throughout the Perkiomen Creek Watershed area where she has led bird walks for more years than she can remember. We invite you to share in our excitement at the return of our feathered friends and take this opportunity to brush up on your identification skills!
Light refreshments will be served.
Pre-registration required.
Fee: $7 Members/$10 Non-Members.
For more information and/or registration, please call 610.287.9383.
