The Detroit International Wildlife Refuge is an important stopover site during bird migration. Uniquely positioned on the Detroit River before the river empties into Lake Erie, the Refuge is part of the migration corridor for birds in southeastern Michigan. This green space is a great place for birds to rest and refuel. The Oakland Owlets will take a guided hike with a Refuge interpreter. Afterwards, the group will tour the newly constructed John J. Dingell Visitor Center.
Young Birders’ Club, Oakland Owlets, offers field trips for youth 8 – 18 years. Young birders 15 years and younger must be accompanied by an adult. These age-appropriate programs provide educational experiences for youth. Young birders must complete a release form.
All birders are welcome to attend these field trips. To register for Oakland Owlet’s field trips, contact – Kathleen Dougherty, Coordinator at kad8186@msn.com
