Jones County Conservation invites families to the Central Park Nature Center for a winter open house and backyard bird count event from 9 a.m. to noon on Saturday.

The event begins at 9 a.m. with a presentation to learn about and identify local birds. Then visit the Nature Center open house starting at 10 a.m. to learn about participating in the Great Backyard Bird Count while viewing birds at the Nature Center bird feeders.

Watch and learn about the center’s live animals as they get fed at 10:30 a.m., and make a suet log bird feeder to take home. If conditions are snowy, snow shoes will be available.
