Join us for a SoBirding outing! This is a sober event (sober birding) and open to people in recovery and/or allies. We’ll introduce you to the basics of birding, techniques for observing and discussion of the meditative practices that are part of birding. Plus, you’ll meet some great people!

Open to absolutely anyone, any skill level or person. Nothing needed except to show up and be ready to experience birding.

We’ll explore a natural area along the Colorado River and the forest of the wildlife sanctuary that’s right under our noses, but rarely seen.

Hosted by a Certified Naturalist and birding enthusiast Zach Bowers.

What to Know:
Bring water, wear sunscreen and consider a hat & bug spray. I’ll have extras of each of those things. Wear shoes you’re comfortable walking in for about two hours.

If you have binoculars, great! Please bring them, but they aren’t needed.

Arriving:
Park on Montopolis drive at Clovis St. We’ll gather before the bridge there. This is a side street off of Montopolis drive main! Near the intersection near 183, but in a pedestrian/residential area.
