Take a stroll around Lake Ballard and beyond with local birding experts (or by yourself) to identify birds in the area by sight and sound before the preserve opens to the public. Bring binoculars or spotting scope for best viewing.

Help us maintain the preserve's trails and common areas. Your help goes a long way towards allowing others to enjoy the natural wonders here! Examples of possible projects include, but are not limited to: removing brush piles/debris from trails, widening trails, or trimming invasive vines from trees.

Meet some rescued owls in the care of Nature's Nanny Wildlife Rehabilitation. Led by Dana Lusher of NNWR, explore the trails of Hoffler Creek in search of owls in their natural habitat. Put your eyes and ears to the test as you scour the treetops after enjoying a presentation about these fascinating birds of prey.
