Spring Bird Walks

Grosse Pointe Audubon members are invited to spring bird walks at Patterson Park in Grosse Pointe Park and the Country Club of Detroit in Grosse Pointe Farms. Country Club of Detroit -- April 29, May 6, 13, 20 at 6:30 a.m. Meet on the service road that runs down the hill to the left of the clubhouse. All walks end at 8 a.m. Wear waterproof footwear -- knee-high if possible. Patterson Park -- May 13 at 6:30 p.m. Meet in the parking lot. Of all the lakefront parks in the Grosse Pointes, Patterson is best for birding. We will see terns, swallows and orioles, and we could see tanagers, hummingbirds and hard-to-find warblers.
