Where are the birds in the sky headed to?
Where do the birds go this time of year? For many, the answer is south. Learn about spectacular migrants both locally and globally during Southward Bound from 2-4 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 24 at Red Oaks Nature Center.
Learn how to help birds on their journey as they travel across the continent toward warmer weather, then stretch your own wings on a migration obstacle course. We’ll also hit the trail to seek out some feathered friends. Cost is $5/person. Preregistration with payment is required by calling 248-858-0916 weekdays.
Red Oaks Nature Center

The center’s interior includes native live animals, displays and classroom space. A 1.3-mile paved trail is used for programs and local residents to hike, bike and walk. The sensory trail features a storybook trail. Year-round educational programs presented by park naturalists are available to the public. Specialized nature programs include in person and virtual field trips, naturalist-led hikes, Scout Badge Days and Wild Birthday Parties. Community Outreach Programs include nature presentations and nature information and touch tables. StarLab inflatable planetarium can be booked either at the nature center or as an outreach program.
