7:30-9:30 a.m.
Head southeast about 40 minutes from Richardson to explore the John Bunker Sands Wetland Center, located in the middle of the North Texas Municipal Water District’s (NTMWD) 2,000-acre East Fork Wetland Project. The project provides a unique, natural process that helps purify Richardson’s water supply (and that of other NTMWD member cities) while at the same time creating wildlife habitat and enhancing the environment. On the first Saturday of each month from September-May, a master birder teaches how to use binoculars and field guides, keep a life-list and identify birds. Recommended for ages 10 and up. Dress for the weather; wear study, closed-toe shoes or boots. Binoculars are available for loan.
