Birds and Bins

Meet at the cul-de-sac at 9am (the Al Bungard Conservation Area). Use driving directions from HWY 17.
Trip Rigor: Easy, with paved path and varied terrain. Estimated walking distance 2 miles. ADA accessible; no public restrooms on site.
Registration is individual. Each person in your party must register separately.
