Let’s Go Birding Together intentionally welcomes the LGBTQ+ community to come learn about birds and birding. Everyone deserves to spend time in nature without fear for their safety or wondering if they will be welcome into a group. Started in 2016 by the National Audubon Society, Let’s Go Birding Together birding walks allow everyone to experience the joys of nature in a safe, affirming, and inclusive space.
Wissahickon Trails is pleased to offer this bird walk in partnership with Liberty Bird Alliance (formerly Wyncote Audubon Society), and the walk will be led by Kristy Morley, Senior Naturalist at Wissahickon Trails and her wife Barb Williams.
All experience levels are welcome, from those who are brand-new to birding and want to learn more to those who have been birding for years. All ages are also welcome, from elders to youth. Please note that anyone under the age of 18 must be accompanied by a parent, guardian, or parental figure.
