The Weeks State Park Migratory Bird Day Walk is Thursday, May 16, 2024. The walk starts at 7 am at the Parking Lot at the start of the Weeks State Park Summit Road, just off of US Route 3 in Lancaster. We will then take a leisurely 3-mile round trip walk along the Auto Road to the summit of Mt Prospect, gaining 800 feet of elevation. Along the way, we should see various warblers, vireos, and flycatchers, as well as a variety of spring wildflowers.

We typically finish at 11 am and then offer an optional side trip to Martin Meadow Pond, where we will look for loons, osprey, and bald eagles. The birding walk is sponsored by the Weeks State Park Association and is free and open to the public.

The theme of World Migratory Bird Day 2024 is “Protect Insects, Protect Birds.” Free educational posters featuring this theme will be available.
