SUMMARY:Early Birders @ Arnold Arboretum\, Bussey Hill & Peter’s Hill 
DESCRIPTION:Join fellow birders in their 20s-30s as we visit Arnold Arboretum! Located in the Forest Hills neighborhood of Boston\, Arnold Arboretum is a 281-acre public preserve home to an extensive collection of flora from across the globe. As we navigate through the park’s hills and gardens\, expect to see late fall residents & migrants (keep an eye out for warblers!). We have no set path for this trip and will follow our eyes and ears to find the birdiest spots in the park. \nWhether you’re a newcomer looking to start a new hobby or are a seasoned bird expert\, birders of all experience levels in their 20s and 30s are encouraged to join! Let’s connect through our mutual appreciation for birds and the environment! Hope to see you there! \nDress for the weather conditions! Expect to walk on mostly paved or gravel paths through hills. We will start our walk near South Street Gate and visit Bussey Hill and Peter’s Hill. Bring binoculars if you have them; loaners are available on request (please email the trip leader ahead of time). \nThis trip is specifically dedicated to those in their 20s and 30s. Please do not bring children. \nPlan to meet at the intersection of Hemlock Hill Rd and Valley Rd inside the park (near South Street Gate across the street from Bussey Brook Meadow). Meeting location coordinates: 42.29791\, -71.12277. \nParking: Free parking is available along the Arborway\, Flora Way\, and Walter Street. \nTransit Directions: Arnold Arboretum is accessible via the T’s Orange Line (Forest Hills) and various bus routes. See the MBTA’s bus map for bus routes. Once you arrive at Forest Hills\, make sure you enter the park via South Street or Forest Hill Rd and follow either of these roads until you reach Beech Path. Follow Beech Path until it terminates and you will be at the meeting location. There is currently construction at the Washington Street entrance and so that path is temporarily closed. Please see the park map for more detail: https://arboretum.harvard.edu/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/Arnold-Arboretum-Map_12.2024-2.pdf \nPlease feel free to contact the trip leader if you have any issues finding the meeting location (or any other concerns)!
