Then join Michigan Audubon and our guide Sam Burckhardt on a beginning birder tour in Iosco County. This adventure will travel by caravan around the Tawas area to see the many migrating birds, specifically the vibrant array of warblers, shorebirds, and waterfowl. The weekend will include visiting Kirtland’s Warblers on their breeding grounds. Enjoy the many wonders the area has to offer while learning birding skills.
