What kind of bird is this?

Meet fellow bird enthusiasts at the Dennis & Judith Jones Visitor and Education Center for a Beginner Bird Walk in Forest Park at 8am this Saturday, June 6.

Weather permitting, these meetups are short (two hours or less) trips along a paved path or trail. They are designed to help participants encounter as many birds as possible and become familiar with a variety of our more common birds.🪿

“We know how important outdoor green spaces are especially at this time, and this destination will be a fantastic new offering for St. Louisans and visitors to the region.” - Greg Hayes, Director of Parks Recreation and Forestry for City of St. Louis Government

Five years ago today, 17 acres of turf grass in Forest Park was transformed into an experiential play space with natural landscapes. The Anne O’C. Albrecht Nature Playscape opened on June 2, 2021 and it has quickly become one of the most beloved spaces in the best city park.

Dozens of new saplings have arrived this spring for replanting in areas of Forest Park where last year’s storm toppled trees.

"This is going to be an effort of scaling. How do we grow the work we have done for the last 40 years?"

The May 16 tornado upended thousands of lives and damaged homes across the region. It also cut a scar through one of the city’s greatest assets: Forest Park.
