You take flight. Only feathers, muscle, and air power your movement through the sky. The journey is long and dangerous but your survival, and the survival of your kind, depends on it.  Green, brown, and a vastness of blue give way to concrete human habitats absent of food, water, or shelter. After thousands of miles of evading predation, formidable weather and countless other hazards, you arrive. Your journey has ended this Spring only to begin again in the Fall. This is the way of your species. This is bird migration.

It seems Forest Lawn, located at 1411 Delaware Avenue in the city of Buffalo, truly is “for the birds.” With a plentiful variety of seed and fruit trees and spring-fed lakes, Forest Lawn provides a much-welcomed green-space respite for birds migrating northward each spring, making this historic spot in the heart of the city the perfect place for bird watching.

Dennis Gralak, a member of the Ornithological Society of Buffalo, will lead a series of two-hour bird-watching walks through this beautifully landscaped cemetery. A bird enthusiast for more than 20 years, Dennis has led birding field trips in 28 states across the country.

These walks are open to all seasoned birders as well as those interested in learning more about birding. Binoculars and sensible walking shoes are recommended. Walks will take place rain or shine.
