Guided Nature Walk and Anderson Ranch House tour at Anderson Marsh State Historic Park

Description

Anderson Marsh State Historic Park will host a free guided Nature Walk beginning at 8:30am on Saturday, March 10th. There will be a tour of the historic Anderson Ranch House after the walk. Rain will cancel the walk. If the walk is canceled due to rain, the Ranch House tour will begin at 8:30am. This month’s Nature Walk will be led by Park docent Henry Bornstein, who asks that participants arrive at the parking lot by 8:15am so they can have time to explore the wildlife found in the ranch house yard. The beautiful white-and-black bird looking for a tasty meal while hovering over the park grasslands is a White-Tailed Kite, which can be found in the Park this time of year. Weather permitting, the guided walk will explore a loop over the Ridge Trail, Marsh Trail and Cache Nature Trail, traveling through many of the habitats that are contained in the Park. The precise route taken will depend on the weather and the condition of the trails. Participants should bring binoculars if they have them, and wear sturdy shoes and a hat.
