Tualatin River National Wildlife Refuge
About this event
It's time to do an autumn walk on this trail which closes for the year at the end of this month. The loop goes through a wooded area and around a wetlands where we can usually see several types of waterfowl. This isn't an official bird walk, but you may want binoculars. If it's a nice day, lunch on the deck of Tree's restaurant in nearby Sherwood is a possibility. The refuge opens at 10, so this won't be a crack-of-dawn departure. Call or email by Sept. 5 to register (no texts please).
