Sunday Morning Bird Walk!

Take advantage of the morning sun and join us for a guided Bird Walk this Sunday, May 11, at Las Cruces/Wilson Botanical Garden.

We will meet at the Reception Building at 7:00 am and have binoculars to share.

Spring Holiday Walk!

Please join us for a Bird Walk this Sunday, April 20, at 7 am — we’ll meet at the Reception Building at OTS/Las Cruces/ Wilson Botanical Garden.

The weather is and has been amazingly beautiful for several weeks and we can’t believe our luck. Birds are in breeding plumage — some are feeding young — and butterflies are skittering along from one flower to the next in all their glory! In fact, bring your butterfly book, why not?

The Walk is free, open to the public and we have binoculars to lend.

Hope to see you there.

And no, despite this image we are not going to peer into birds’ nests, just watch them coming and going…….
