Join Tucson Audubon for a birding walk at Tohono Chul! This popular destination near the intersection of Ina and Oracle Roads has cultivated gardens, art exhibits and winding trails with many birds typical of the Sonoran Desert and its suburban habitats. Hummingbirds in particular flock to the gardens to enjoy the abundance of flowers. In addition to birding, participants will learn about Sonoran Desert vegetation and the history of Tohono Chul. After the walk concludes, participants will have the opportunity to meet Sueno, a rehabilitated Harris’s Hawk, and her caretaker. Meet at 9:30 AM at the Tohono Chul admissions window. Face masks will be required to enter indoor areas. Limited to 10 participants. Wrap up by 11 AM.
Tohono Chul entrance fee will be waived for trip participants. This program is being offered in partnership with Tohono Chul.
