Beginner Friendly Birding @ Whitaker Ponds w/ Rose City Bird Collective

Join us for an early spring bird walk at Whitaker Ponds Nature Park with Rose City Bird Collective, led by Susan. This compact northeast Portland wetland offers excellent opportunities to observe a wide variety of birds in a relatively small and accessible area. Birders of all experience levels are welcome.
What to Expect
- Beginner-friendly bird identification and learning support
- Relaxed pace with frequent stops for viewing and questions
- Welcoming and social group atmosphere
Whitaker Ponds features a mix of open water, pond edges, and shrubby habitat that attracts a wide diversity of species. We’ll follow an easy loop at a gentle pace, stopping often to observe waterfowl, songbirds, and overhead activity.
