Event details
May mornings at Ryerson Woods are made for binoculars. Walk with skilled birders as migrating songbirds funnel through the preserve’s mix of woods and wetlands, lighting up the treetops with color and song.
The early start pays off—cool air, active birds, and quiet trails. Meet at the Welcome Center parking lot, leave pets at home, and bring layers and a field guide so kids can keep a running “life list.”
