Bird Club

The Discovery Center Bird Club welcomes all birdwatchers, be it beginner, expert, or casual observers. The Club's goals are to meet, share, have fun, and improve our birding skills; to draw attention to the richness of bird life in the Northwoods; and to participate in projects aimed at bird conservation and habitat improvement. Join today...

The Discovery Center is a featured spot along the Great Wisconsin Birding and Nature Trail, and with good reason! The Center offers a variety of self-guided trails ideal for bird walks, as well as a number of public programs related to birds.
