Come down to the river for a morning of family friendly exploration activities with Friends of the Mad River and Audubon Vermont. We’ll explore the connection between birds and rivers, spending time learning about the habitat along rivers, the birds that live there, and the river creatures that they eat. We’ll have the chance to take a walk and look for birds, flip rocks in the stream in search of bugs, and take part in fun activities like a scavenger hunt and demonstrations of popular nature apps.

This event is free, meant for all ages and welcomes families with children! Come with a curious mind, waterproof boots if you would like to wade in the river, and binoculars if you have them.

Registration is required for this event. Please sign up at bit.ly/bugstobirds or on the event website.

This event is part of the Mad About Birds Day hosted by Friends of the Mad River, an day of activities celebrating the Mad River Valley’s birds and the landscapes they call home.
