Fall Migration at Circle Forest and Callahan Park

Join Detroit Bird Alliance and Arboretum Detroit for a walk to find migratory birds and other wildlife. The walk will start and end at Circle Forest (3301 Palmer St Detroit) and walk through Callahan Park. Circle Forest is a restoration project created by Arboretum Detroit and Callahan Park is the first Detroit Bird City park restored with a native grass and flower meadow in 2019. We will walk through other Arboretum Detroit sites including Oxygen Alley, and Treetroit 1. We will wander through these spaces looking and listening for birds. For each bird we find we can discuss behavior, field marks, fun facts and identification tips. If there is not much bird activity we can discuss past bird sightings in the area as well as the local plants and how they interact with birds and other wildlife. We have been watching the birds at Callahan Park since the meadow was first established and recorded over 120 different species of birds at Callahan Park, which you can view here. We will have binoculars for attendees to borrow. Bathroom facilities are not available.
