Come out for a morning of birding to spot some migratory birds along their journeys on the Atlantic Flyway! We will be birding every other Saturday morning of September and October at different locations throughout the county.

We will walk leisurely along the 1 mile trail at Plantation Preserve Linear Trail. The address is 7050 W Broward Blvd, Plantation, FL 33317.

South Florida becomes an exciting place to bird starting in late July when shorebirds and songbirds from the Arctic Tundra, Great Plains and New England beaches make their migration south for their winter grounds. Be on the lookout for Prothonotary, Worm-eating and Cerulean Warblers and Yellow-billed Cuckoos. Plantation Preserve is a renowned spot for birding. Keep your eyes peeled for great egrets, limpkins, great blue herons, warblers, cardinals, jays, thrashers, mockingbirds and more. Expect to be out from 8am to 10am.
