This event has been CANCELED DUE TO WEATHER and rescheduled for March 2, from 3:00pm-5:00pm.

Good news is the Nextgen Birders for Conservation successfully raised the funds we need to install a 12-gourd purple martin colony! We will be installing this in March.

This bird walk is part of the Audubon Society of Northern Virginia's Stretch Our Parks initiative, in partnership with the Four Mile Run Conservatory Foundation.

This afternoon bird walk is open for everyone, beginners and families are welcome. Trails in the park are flat and paved, accessible for strollers and wheelchairs.

Park in the lot behind Mom's Organic Market. Meet us at the playground behind the basketball court.

Your birding guide is Andreas Seiter, an experienced local birder, member of the Board of Directors of the Audubon Society of Nothern Virginia, and member of the Northern Virginia Bird Club and Virginia Society of Ornithology.

Our Nextgen Birders for Conservation group is raising funds to purchase and install a Purple Martin colony at Four Mile Run. You can help them make their goal by donating a few dollars here. We will get to see the proposed site during this bird walk.

Registration for this event is recommended but not required.
