These free walks are guided by an expert from the local Audubon Society and wind around the trails of the Old Mill District that run along the Deschutes River.

Groups will meet at 10 am at the Ticket Mill in the core of the Old Mill District\, where binoculars provided by Leupold are available for checkout. Participants can also pick up a specially designed birding list to help identify birds and some common animals seen along the walk. \nBird Walk dates for 2018 are April 6 & 20 and May 4 & 18. \nAbout the Old Mill District \nOne of the Pacific Northwest’s most distinctive and dynamic mixed-use developments\, the Old Mill District is located on 270 acres that formerly housed one of the largest sawmill operations in the world.

SUMMARY:Old Mill District Spring Bird Walks
DESCRIPTION:The Old Mill District and the East Cascades Audubon Society are again offering free weekly bird walks to the public every other Friday\, April 6 through May 18. These free walks are guided by an expert from the local Audubon Society and wind around the trails of the Old Mill District that run along the Deschutes River. The area is a migratory corridor and attracts a host of incredible birds either passing through or as cherished residents. Spring is an excellent time to see all the action with warming weather\, nesting\, and migration. \n“These birding walks have become an annual tradition for us to welcome spring\, and the return of many of our birds\, in the Old Mill District\,” said Noelle Fredland\, marketing director for the Old Mill District. “It’s a wonderful way for people to enjoy the beauty of the area and the river while learning from the experts about the role birds play in our ecosystem.” \nThe bi-weekly\, two-hour walks are appropriate for all ages and interested parties\, from novices to experienced avian experts. Groups will meet at 10 am at the Ticket Mill in the core of the Old Mill District\, where binoculars provided by Leupold are available for checkout. Participants can also pick up a specially designed birding list to help identify birds and some common animals seen along the walk. \nBird Walk dates for 2018 are April 6 & 20 and May 4 & 18. \nAbout the Old Mill District \nOne of the Pacific Northwest’s most distinctive and dynamic mixed-use developments\, the Old Mill District is located on 270 acres that formerly housed one of the largest sawmill operations in the world.
