Glen Foerd is one of the best places in the city to bird-watch during the winter. Join BirdPhilly at this free event to search for unique birds such as the Iceland or Glaucous Gull and the Double-crested and Great Cormorants.

This will be a stationary event overlooking the river, but if folks want, we can also explore the parkland surrounding the mansion. Please dress according to the expected weather.

We will meet at 10.30 am at the flagpole along the river. Folks can join at any point during the event.

No binoculars? No worries! Birding backpacks with binoculars and field guides are now back on loan at the following local Philly libraries: Andorra, Cobbs Creek, Cecil B. Morre, Falls of Schuylkill, Frankford, Greater Olney, Logan, Richmond, South Philly, Torresdale, and Widener.
