Young Birders Club: Morning Walk at Byxbee Park

Join the Young Birders Club for a morning walk at Byxbee Park in Palo Alto! We will mainly be looking for ground birds, like wintering sparrows, American Pipits, and Western Meadowlarks, and birds of prey, like American Kestrels and White-tailed Kites, though other species are likely.

This trip is designed for young birders, but parents and siblings are welcome to attend. We welcome birders of all skill levels! Loaner binoculars are available for participants.
