Home Clippings It’s birding season at Edsel & Eleanor Ford House

PLEASE NOTE: In the autumn of 1995, we hatched the idea for a free, local gardening publication. The following spring, we published the first issue of Michigan Gardener magazine. Advertisers, readers, and distribution sites embraced our vision. Thus began an exciting journey of helping our local gardening community grow and prosper.
After 27 years, nearly 200 issues published, and millions of copies printed, we have decided it is time to end the publication of our Print Magazine and E-Newsletter.

It’s birding season at Edsel & Eleanor Ford House

January 14, 2011   •   

The majesty of winter’s quiet beauty is a breathtaking backdrop for discovering birds on a crisp morning at Edsel & Eleanor Ford House. Birders have seen and heard the beautiful notes of songbirds and witnessed migration overhead.

Ford House and Rosann Kovalcik, owner of Wild Bird’s Unlimited in Grosse Pointe Woods, continue their partnership by offering novice and experienced bird watchers the opportunity to walk among the magnificent grounds during the Winter/Spring Bird Walk series at Ford House. Over the years, participants in walks have discovered more than 190 species of birds. 

The Winter/Spring Bird Walk series begins Saturday, Jan. 15 and continues on the following days: February 12, 8am; March 12, 8am; and April 16, 7:30am. 

Reservations are required and may be made by calling 313.884.4222. Admission to the bird walk is $7 per person. For additional information, visit www.fordhouse.org.
