Kids of all ages can participate in a Gardens-wide scavenger hunt, take photos with exotic bird species, create a variety of bird-centric arts and crafts, dissect owl pellets, and much, much more. BirdFest promises to be an educational and exciting opportunity to learn more about our feathered friends. We hope to see you here!
