Events Single Title Field Trip - Muskegon Wastewater Treatment Area - NEW DATE!
–
March 24, 2024
Due to the weather, this field trip is postponed until Sunday, March 24th!
Explore the wastewater lagoons, drying basins, and surrounding open country for visiting birds. This area is recognized by the state as an Important Bird Area. A variety of waterfowl, shorebirds, gulls, and raptors use this area as a migration layover, and potentially we could see several species not commonly found in the Kalamazoo area.
Meet at the D Avenue/I-131 commuter parking lot at 8:00 am to join our caravan, or meet us at the Muskegon Wastewater Treatment Office (698 N. Maple Island Rd, Muskegon, MI 49442) at 9:45 am. We expect to spend about 3-3.5 hours exploring the site by car, stopping to view anything of interest.
A pass is required for each vehicle visiting the facility, and can be requested online at https://mcresourcerecoverycenter.com/rec-birdwatching-tours/apply-visitor-pass/ , or by phone at (231) 724-3440 during normal business hours. There is no fee required.
