Up to twenty tours will explore birds, butterflies, wildflowers, wetlands, and mountain meadows, and a host of free educational presentations and workshops on topics such as birding, botany, pollinators and the Carson River will be offered. Family activities and crafts, various exhibitors and vendors, live entertainment, and much more will round out the day with something for every member of the family from GrandDad to Junior!
The Wings & Willows Festival will begin with the first tours at 8:00 am and conclude with the Sunset Serenity Tour and a live band at 8:00 pm.
