Bird walk with Jim in Dallas
About this event
A return to Dallas to learn and enjoy birding with Jim and Jeanette Scott, long time Chemeks.
Come to Dallas for a bird walk on another section of the Rickreall Creek Trail System, this time on the West-end of the trail. We will start at Kingsborough Park, joining up with the RCTS, walk past Meadow Creek Village, and join back on the RCTS on a paved path along the shaded riparian area of Rickreall Creek. Approximate mileage is two miles out and back. Be sure to bring binoculars and your smartphone. We will be demonstrating use of the Merlin phone app to identify bird songs. Meet at 8:00AM. Parking is street-side at Kingsborough Park on SW Wyatt Street.
