Downy Woodpecker by Ruth Shelly

Get to know the Friends of the Wildwoods Open Space and make new friends from the Audubon Society of Lincoln City at the next bird walk this Saturday, Feb. 11.

This is an easy trek through a small forest right in the heart of Lincoln City. Bird sighting goals will include year-round residents such as downy woodpeckers and wintering sparrows.

The group will meet at 9 am at the trailhead on NE West Devils Lake Road. There is limited parking along the street at the trailhead.

All Audubon Society of Lincoln City bird walks are free, family-friendly, easy to moderately easy and no pre-registration or experience is required. Binoculars and guidebooks are provided. Walks are held rain or shine; dress appropriately for coastal weather and muddy trails. For more information, go to lincolncityaudubon.org.
