Come join Tim at Turnbull NWR to brush up on your birding skills before the Christmas Bird Count season begins.  We will tour the refuge on foot and by car.  Total walking on mostly flat trails will be about 3 miles.  Turnbull NWR is well-known for its mix of habitats that attract waterfowl, songbirds, and raptors.  We will meet at the refuge headquarters parking area and travel from there.  Please bring binoculars, food, drink, and dress appropriately for the weather.  There will be a lunch stop.  The refuge has several vault toilets.  Limited to 16 birders.  Please email or text Tim to reserve your spot.  Email:  rather.b.birdin@gmail.com  Cell:  509-850-7114
