Reminder: Free Nature Walks Sunday, Tuesday

A reminder: Our special Valentine's Day Weekend Walk is at 10 a.m. this Sunday at 10 a.m.

We will look for wintering waterfowl at DeKorte, plus Rough-legs and Northern Harriers and other raptors on Disposal Road — with a quick optional trip to the Kearny Marsh to look for coots and moorhens.

Who knows? Maybe we'll get lucky and see another Bald Eagle, like last weekend. Or a Ring-necked Pheasant — they've been seen and heard a lot lately.

Word to the wise. Dress warmly. It can get windy. More information on the Tuesday walk will be posted on Monday.

Details on Sunday's walk follow.
