Coffee with the Birds - Bird Walk
Sat, August 22, 2026
Enjoy a relaxing morning walk along the Towash Forest Trail while sipping your favorite coffee and discovering the beautiful birds that call Lake Whitney State Park home.
Join Ranger Lory for a peaceful 1‑mile walk through the Towash Forest Trail. As we wander through the woods using our 4 senses, we’ll take time to observe, listen, and learn about the birds returning to Lake Whitney State Park. This guided walk is perfect for all birding experience levels and offers a fun, easy way to connect with nature and sharpen your bird‑watching skills.
After you stop and pay your day use fees drive down to the Towash Forest Trail and meet up at the parking lot. (If camping, no need to stop at HQ's just go to trailhead entrance)
What to bring:
- Your favorite mug filled with your coffee.
- Binoculars (we have loaners to borrow)
- Comfortable pair of walking shoes.
- Dress for the weather.
- A camera or phone to capture the beauty of our trail.
- A friend or two!
Whether a seasoned birder or just curious, everyone is welcome.
We will explore the area, identify species, share tips on birdwatching and make some avian memories together!
Spread the word, bring a friend and make this a fun morning walk!
