Bird-A-Thon Field Trip - Juanita Bay Park

  • Juanita Bay Park 2201 Market Street Kirkland, WA 98033 USA (map)

Juanita Bay Park - Wednesday May 1st

$25 donation to Eastside Audubon for Bird-A-Thon. This donation is encouraged but is not mandatory. If you would like to donate, please register below. Otherwise, registration is not required. See our Birdathon webpage for more information about the month-long fundraising event!

Registration closes April 29th.

Field trip co-leader Chuck Guilford and co-leader Kathy Kuyper will lead an early morning walk through JBP park to see what birds are in the area. Route for the day will depend upon prior scouting. We will go to the most interesting or rarest birds first. Bring binoculars and meet in the parking lot!

The park gates are typically open by 7:15 am. If by chance the park gates are still closed there is on-street parking on Market Street just south of the park, but avoid parking in the bus lane. No permit required for parking in the lot.
