COMOX – Bird Watching At Lazo Marsh

Join the Comox Valley NatureKids BC at Lazo Marsh for an afternoon of bird watching! We will meet at the parking lot off Brent Road. From there walking through the trails to the viewing area where we will be able to see man types wild birds. There is a clearing before the view area where we will explore field guides and paint a bird house for you to take home. Jenn will share information on how to be a good bird ambassador and what do when you find an injured bird. We will have a limited amount of children’s binoculars (around 10) so if you have any please bring them. *Please DO NOT bring food for the birds as we will have safe feed and go over what that looks like.*

Explorer Day Etiquette:

Be prepared to HAVE FUN

Pre-registration with your Club Leader is required for most Explorer Days (Friends are welcome if space permits).

Please arrive 5-10 minutes before the scheduled start time to ensure enough time for passport stamping and organization. Starting times are firm, and Leaders cannot wait for late-comers!

Please stay with the Leader and let them know if you are leaving early.

Children must always be accompanied by an adult guardian, who is responsible for their behaviour. Children consistently disrupting the experience of others may be asked to leave.

Bring appropriate weather gear, sunscreen, snacks, water, and other useful tools like binoculars, sketch books, cameras, and magnifying glasses.
