Enjoy Springtime at the Bird Sanctuary with Monthly Guided Birds & Coffee Walks

Need a little nature in your mornings? The W.K. Kellogg Bird Sanctuary hosts Birds & Coffee Walks year-round on the second Wednesday of each month.

Visitors can enjoy a leisurely birding stroll led by Sanctuary staff to locate and identify the many birds visiting the Kellogg Bird Sanctuary. Join us afterward to talk about the morning’s finds over a cup of hot, bird-friendly coffee. Birders of all skill levels are welcome!

Look for warblers on their spring migration, enjoy the return of herons and cranes and view all of the Sanctuary’s local waterfowl. Visitors can bring their own binoculars or borrow a pair from the Sanctuary.

Each program runs 9 to 10:30 a.m. Upcoming program dates are April 11, May 9 and June 13. Cost for non-members is Sanctuary general admission: $5 for adults and $4 for senior citizens (62+). There is no charge for Sanctuary members.

The W.K. Kellogg Bird Sanctuary is part of the W.K. Kellogg Biological Station. Celebrate with us our legacy of conservation as we mark 90 years since W.K. Kellogg donated the lands that now make up KBS to Michigan State University. Our commitment to research, education and outreach stands on the foundation of W.K. Kellogg’s vision for cutting-edge science and learning.

As MSU’s largest off-campus educational complex, we’ve put our land-grant values into practice as we’ve provided the public with examples of science’s crucial role in sustaining natural and managed communities for nearly a hundred years. As we look forward, our students and faculty are working to understand and solve real-world environmental problems for a better tomorrow. To learn more about KBS, visit us online at kbs.msu.edu.
