Flagstaff Festival of Science: For Birds, Just Add Water

Join wildlife ecologist, Christina Vojta, on a stroll through Kachina Wetlands. Identify birds and learn how a formerly dry meadow became an important migratory birds stopover in northern Arizona. Learn the hidden secrets behind Kachina’s ponds and discover birds that depend on water during their fall migration. The 2-mile walk will end at dusk with a stunning view of the San Francisco Peaks at sunset. Bring binoculars if you have them; a small pack with water, bug repellent, a light jacket, and a flashlight.
