About this event

The LGLC is again partnering with Up Yonda Farm Environmental Education Center to offer a new series of hikes led by Up Yonda’s naturalists.

New York is home to more than 450 species of birds. While hiking up to the Godwin Preserve overlook with an Up Yonda Farm Naturalist, learn birding basics on how to identify birds. The overlook provides great views of soaring raptors and nearby songbirds to test out your new identification skills.

Binoculars and the smartphone app, Merlin Bird ID, are recommended. This hike is rated easy/moderate with several steeper sections. 1.6 miles round-trip.

Register with the Lake George Land Conservancy at least 24 hours in advance at https://lglc.org/event/ds20250712/
