SUMMARY:Phinizy Waterfowl Guided Drive
DESCRIPTION:This is a Phinizy Nature Park trip and there is a fee.  Registration is required.  Please see the events page at www.phinizycenter.org to register.  All levels of birding are welcome.  Recommended for youth birders and beginner birders. \nJoin us as we go on a search for our wet winter visitors. Since the ducks seem to hide in the far wetland cells\, we will carpool through the constructed wetlands to find them. It is a special treat to be able to travel in the wetland cells by car! You will get to see the vast beauty of the park in areas you may not have ever made it to if you were walking. \nCome experience the wonder of our Dabblers and Divers. \nWe will meet at the Visitor’s Parking lot in the front of the park. This event is led by Phinizy’s birder extraordinaire\, Ruth Mead\, and Audubon’s field trip leader\, Lois Stacey. \nYou must register each individual below to attend. \nQuestions? Email ruth.mead@phinizycenter.org
