Register for this event at the bottom of Capitol Land Trust’s announcement here: https://capitollandtrust.org/bird-outing-to-bayshore-preserve/

Join Capitol Land Trust and Black Hills Audubon Society on a bird outing to Bayshore Preserve. Participants will get to witness Bayshore Preserve’s transformation from golf course to nature preserve. Bayshore Preserve is a 78-acre nature preserve conserved by Capitol Land Trust on Oakland Bay in Shelton.

This preserve protects a variety of habitats like Puget Sound shoreline, saltmarsh, oak prairie, and streamside forest along Johns Creek. We will be looking and listening for spring migrants and year-round residents. No prior bird experience is necessary. This is a family friendly event.

Trail information: The trail system is about 1.5 miles total. The Main Loop Trail is mostly flat and a mixture of dirt and gravel. The birding route will travel along trails with short inclines/declines. A portion of the trail could be soggy/muddy. There is a portable toilet available for use. The trails are not wheelchair accessible. Learn more about the trails.

Please wear weather appropriate clothing for a slow pace, sturdy, closed-toed shoes, and bring water and a snack. Bring your favorite birding tools (binoculars, scopes, camera, field guide, etc.)
