Hello birders. Join me for all-levels welcome bird walks in Hennepin, Ramsey, and Dakota Counties. Our past walks have been well attended by both beginning birders and top-shelf veterans. Bring your cameras, binoculars, guides, and phone apps while we look and listen for birds of the season. Bring water and dress accordingly.
I am a current MRVAC member having recently served on its board as an ad hoc member for 3+ years and now have shifted my love of birds to field trips. We take a light-hearted approach to these trips and mistakes are par for all of us so don’t worry about this common phenomenon.
All walks are weather dependent. If severe weather is predicted I may cancel. It helps me if you let me know in advance if you are attending but no registration is required.

September 5, 2026: 8:00 a.m. – 10:30 a.m. Grass Lake/Snail Lake in Shoreview under the solo, ultra-tall, radio/TV tower. Gramsie Road at Mackubin Street, at the Snail Lake-Grass Lake Parking lot turn in, just east downhill on Gramsie Road from Victoria at the four-way stop. Don’t park at the Snail Lake beach parking area. We are a half-mile south of it. We will explore the mixed trails here and if time permits, we will briefly hike into southern Snail Lake wetlands. Our first trip here in August was a very pleasant surprise for a mid-week walk. There is a portable toilet.
