BIPOC Birding Club

media release: BIPOC Birding Club of Wisconsin community, events, and field trips are open to all BIPOC birders at any level, and allies. We invite you to join in the fun, learn something new, connect with others, and become part of this great group! We are family- and kid-friendly and encourage anyone who has an interest in learning about birds and the outdoors to join us! Field trips are free to attend, and do not require RSVP.

Join us for a walk through the UW-Madison Arboretum. We will be looking for "the usual suspects", our hardy overwintering friends. The arboretum can be a great place for raptors and does provide some surprises, so it will be a great adventure. We will meet at the visitor center at the end of McCaffrey Drive, which is off of Seminole Highway. Find more info here.

What to Expect 

We will be walking approximately two miles along fairly flat terrain, both paths and grass. These paths are narrow, are uneven in places and can be muddy or icy depending on the weather.

Note: We recommend dressing warmly in layers and consider bringing hand warmers! The paths may also be icy, so footwear with good traction is recommended
