Bunche Beach offers bird-watching paradise
GAYLE SHEETS
Black skimmers can be seen at Bunche Beach.
Experience the beautiful birds of Bunche Beach with a bird patrol guide on Sunday, May 15, at 6 p.m. Interested participants are asked to meet in the parking lot at Bunche Beach located off Summerlin Road at the left end of John Morris Road.
This event is excellent for both migrant and resident wading and shorebirds working the mudflats at low tide due to the diversity of micro-invertebrates. For more information, call 707-3015. The event is free and provided in cooperation with Lee County Parks and Recreation, though there may be a parking fee.
Bring binoculars, sun protection, shoes that can get wet, a bottle of drinking water, your curiosity and love of nature.
