Join us for a one-and-one-half-hour introductory bird walk in Brockport’s Corbett Park and along the beautiful Erie Canal. No experience needed – just bring your own curiosity. We will show you how to use binoculars/monoculars, spot our feathered friends, and introduce you to the common birds in our area. It’s the perfect way to enjoy nature, learn something new, and have a great time outdoors. Whether you’re a budding birder or just looking for a fun activity, everyone is welcome.

We will meet at the pavilion at Corbett Park, (155 Clark Street, Brockport, NY) and there is parking in a small lot on Smith Street by the bridge. Dress for the weather, wear comfortable shoes that can get muddy or wet, and bring your own water bottle. We have a limited number of optics to share, so bring a pair of binocular/monoculars if you own them. Please leave your pets at home. This does not apply to service dogs.

In order to take advantage of fall migration we are holding two bird walks on September 13 and September 27.

Bird walks are open to participants age 10 and up. If under 18, you must be accompanied by an adult. An ASL Interpreter can be requested with four (4) days’ advance notice by emailing us at otcbrockport@gmail.com

The Village of Brockport is offering this free adventure through a partnership with the NYS Canal Corp and New York Power Authority and their On the Canals program.
