Winter Hiking
Series: Birds of Winter Hike
Winter’s brisk weather brings with it unique beauty. Join Darke County
Parks to seek out these seasonal sights and hiking opportunities. On
December 31st at 9am join a naturalist at Shawnee Prairie Preserve just
west of Greenville on St. Rt. 502 to explore the world of winter birds.
The program will begin with a quick presentation on possible bird
species, and then participants will take a bird hike and enjoy the bird
window in the Nature Center. Remember to dress for the weather. In the
event of severe weather, call the Nature Center to find out about
possible cancellation. For more information about this or any of the
other exciting hikes in this season’s series or other park district
programs, please call the Nature Center at (937) 548-0165.
Photo-The Dark-eyed Junco is a common harbinger of winter’s arrival and
is also a common bird at feeding stations.
