NEW - Saturday Morning Bird Walks!

Join us for a Saturday morning bird walk May 25 at 8:00 am at the Visitor Center

2877 Creamery Rd. Solebury, PA

The May 25 walk will be lead by student volunteer Zach Moyer.  On May 11 highlights included Rose Breasted Grosbeak, Baltimore Oriole, Brown Thrasher, Black and White Warbler and many more. Bring binoculars or borrow a pair of ours.

Available now at the Bird Seed Shed:

Shade-grown coffee promotes a healthy environment for both animals and plants because it requires a variety of different trees for growth.  With a large variety of different trees on shade-grown coffee farms, comes a variety of different bird species as well as habitats for other animals.  Sun-grown coffee can yield much higher rates of coffee, but requires fertilizers and chemicals that are detrimental to wildlife.  Call 215.297.5880 for types and pricing.

Thanks to Wild Birds Unlimited in Buckingham for donating feeders and seed for our Visitor Center!

Thanks to Jason Barger (sculptor) for donating a stone bird bath and bench outside the Visitor Center; and to Linda Kane for gardening and planting the area to make it a quiet space to watch the birds!
