Duval Audubon Society is sponsoring a birding outing for the Florida Young Birders Club (FYBC)-Northeast Florida Chapter at Julington-Durbin Creek Preserve on Sunday, November 9th from 8-10am. FYBC is a membership organization geared towards young birders ages 9-17, but you do not need to be a member to go birding with us for this outing. This walk will be led by Will Misner, youth representative of the FYBC-Northeast Florida Chapter, and David Doran, Duval Audubon Society's Director of Education and Youth Outreach.

You can learn more about Florida Young Birders Club, here: floridayoungbirders.org. Julington-Durbin Creek Preserve is full of both year-round and migratory songbirds that inhabit its pine forests, which are unique to the Southeast. We will especially keep an eye out for the Brown-headed Nuthatch, a bird specific to this preserve's habitat.
