Intro to Kayak Birdwatching

Intro to Kayak Birdwatching

Join us for a FREE introduction to kayak birdwatching! The Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission will be partnering with PA DCNR State Parks to provide individuals an opportunity to learn basic kayaking and birdwatching skills. Kayaks, life vests, and paddles will be provided. Some binoculars will be available to borrow but it is highly suggested to bring your own pair!

Participants must be 12 years or older to participate.

 

Please dress for the weather. Kayaking is a wet sport, please expect to interact with water. Close-toed shoes are required. There is a good chance your shoes will get wet and/or muddy. Kayaks are limited and registration for this program is required.

 

After an on-land discussion of kayaking equipment, basic instruction, safety, and tips for bird watching, we will enjoy a nice leisurely paddle around parts of Pinchot Lake in search of waterfowl and other bird species. We will be off the water at 11:00am.

 

You will be notified of the exact meeting location after registration. Register here: https://www.register-ed.com/events/view/237284
