Around Town Bird Walk

November 28, 2026 •

Have you ever wondered how many bird species inhabit the developed town of Lexington compared to surrounding “wild” areas? Or maybe you’d like to do something relaxing after the Thanksgiving holiday – or just want to burn off some of the pumpkin pie?

For whatever reason, join RBC members at 8:30 a.m. the Saturday after Thanksgiving at Richardson Park (300 Diamond Street) to walk around town spotting some of Lexington’s resident birds. We’ll begin birdwatching in the park, then stroll down a few city streets to see what other feathered friends might be wintering in our “urban” habitats. The walk will go no more than two hours, and participants can drop out at any time.

Wear comfortable shoes, bring binoculars, and dress for the weather. For more information or a possible rain or snow cancellation, check Rockbridge Bird Club on Facebook.
