Bird Walk - Deception Pass

There are currently no future events scheduled.
Discover some of the common, and not so common, species of birds which call Deception Pass State Park home.

Bird Walks are designed as a great opportunity for birders of all levels. Practice bird identification skills, explore unique bird habitats, and learn from other birders. We recommend bringing your own binoculars and/or scopes, but we will have a few on hand to borrow. All walks are offered in partnership with the Whidbey Audubon Society.
