Bird Nerds: Wild Turkey

Join fellow bird lovers for an engaging morning focused on wild turkeys, one of Ohio's most iconic birds. The program starts with an indoor presentation that goes beyond surface-level facts—you'll discover details about these fascinating creatures that most people overlook. If you'd like to continue after the presentation, you're invited to head outside for a guided birding walk to spot these birds in their natural habitat. This event welcomes everyone from curious beginners to seasoned bird watchers, including teens and adults. The combination of classroom learning and outdoor exploration makes it a great option for families who want to deepen their appreciation for local wildlife. For questions about the program, you can reach the Nature Realm Visitors Center at 330-865-8065 (they're available Wednesday through Saturday, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Sundays from noon to 5 p.m.).
