Burlington Area and Mississippi River: for spring waterfowl migration. Target birds include ducks, geese, pelicans, Winter Wren, and many more. Fifty-five species were seen in 2024! This is an all-day trip led by Burlington local expert birder Chuck Fuller. Walking is usually short distance from frequent stops at locks and dams, riverside parks, and other hotspots. We will stop for lunch at a nearby restaurant. Dress for cold and wind, and bring a scope if you have one. 

To carpool, meet Karen Disbrow at 6:30 a.m. at the front parking lot of the Johnson County Fairgrounds, 3109 Old Highway 218 South, Iowa City. Alternately, you can meet us at 8 a.m. at the Port of Burlington, 400 Front Street, Burlington.
