Evening Bird Walk
Catalina State Park
Tuesday, May 21, 2024 7:30-9:30 p.m.
As temperatures soar, nocturnal birds take flight during the cool evening hours to hunt under the cover of darkness. On the Bridle Trail (rated: easy), join experienced birding guides with powerful spotlights to spot the owls and nighthawks that prowl the night skies on this unique nighttime adventure! Please bring a jacket and flashlight. Consider bringing a red light flashlight to keep flying insects off of you and to preserve night vision.
Meet at the Trailhead Picnic Area. Program is free but standard park entry fees apply, or bring your Arizona State Parks annual pass. Event is weather permitting.
Limited to 20 people and registration is required. Register here and search "Catalina" for the events.
