Founded in 2020, Black Birders Week celebrates Black birders, naturalists, scientists, and outdoor enthusiasts while advocating for inclusion, safety, visibility, and environmental justice in outdoor spaces.

This walk is an opportunity for local residents, families, youth, and nature lovers of all experience levels to connect with nature close to home and celebrate the importance of caring for shared community spaces. Saturday, May 30, 2026 • 9 a.m. – 11 a.m. Free community event — everyone is welcome. No birding experience needed.
