"Accessible Beginner Birding is inclusive, accessible, and designed for true beginner birders. Our route will be a loop covering approximately 900 feet. We’ll travel slowly on flat gravel and compacted lawn. We’ll make frequent stops, with seats available at all stops. This outing will focus on watching and listening to birds at our feeders and near the pond and meadow. There will be instructions for using binoculars and tips for birding by ear. Binoculars will be provided. Accessible restrooms are available in the Visitor Center, and there is van-accessible parking near the beginning of our route.

Wednesdays: June 24 (5:30-7 pm), July 22 (8-9:30 am)

Up on the viewing platform 🙂
The entire gardens & trails around, including the pathway to ocean views is fully #accessible. There are ramped areas all throughout.
When I was in the children's hospital at this property in the 80s, this was the area we used to have big family visitors events.

I used to live in the children's hospital that operated on this huge property for decades. It was my first "home" in Victoria. I was quarantined & didn't see my family much for quite some time & I taught myself English by learning to lipread & ape hospital staff & fellow child patients.
