To celebrate spring migration and World Migratory Bird Day, Loudoun Wildlife Conservancy sponsors a series of walks in several of Loudoun’s richest natural areas. All of them require registration and start at 8:00 am unless otherwise noted. The Big Sit is a drop-in event, with no registration needed.
The Birdathon is also taking place from April 18 – May 17. Learn more about the Birdathon and how you can participate.
