Explore the Brandywine Valley!

Explore the exquisite Brandywine Valley tract of First State National Historical Park in search of some delightfully confusing fall warblers and sparrows. 

As the morning sun first hits the trees, we’ll take a slow stroll along the creekside trail. Afterwards, we will cross the new bridge and loop back around through the woods. 

In addition to the usual suspects, specialty targets seen in past seasons include Lincoln’s Sparrow and Connecticut Warbler.
