San Luis Obispo Botanical Garden Presents: Monthly Birds and Botany Walks

 

The Garden is excited to present a monthly bird walk series on the 4th Thursday of every month from 8 am -10 am.

Explore the intersection of birds and botany with bird lover Mark Mushkat and docent Ken Levine, studying birdlife amongst the plants of the botanical garden. The focus will be on which avian species are drawn to certain plants, what’s gained or lost in the exchange, and how this understanding can shape your own landscaping efforts to the benefit of fauna and flora. Allow for a two-hour exploration on mostly flat ground. Bring binoculars (if you have them), comfortable shoes, and water!

Tickets are $10 for Garden Members, $20 for the general public, and free for children. All tickets include admission to the Garden as well! Walks are open to all ages. Group size is limited to 12 and children must be accompanied by an adult. Ticket sales will end at 4 pm the day before each walk, and due to COVID-19 restriction, all guests must preregister.
