Warblers, Wildflowers, and Wine
May 23 @ 10:00 am - 1:00 pm
Embrace the Spring Season with the Montezuma Audubon Center and Montezuma Winery & Hidden Marsh Distillery! Join an Audubon educator for a guided walk along the U.S. Fish & Wildlife South Spring Pool Trail to welcome our warblers back from their southern migration. After our guided excursion, continue the fun at Montezuma Winery & Hidden Marsh Distillery for a wine and snack pairing flight! While you sample your wine and have a bite to eat, Daena Ford from Braddock Bay Raptor Research will bring out her raptor ambassadors for a live and up-close encounter.
Location: This event will start at the National Wildlife Refuge South Spring Pool Trail off State Route 89. We will then make our way to Montezuma Winery & Hidden Marsh Distillery (2981 Route 20, Seneca Falls, NY 13148). If coming in a group, we recommend carpooling as space is limited at the trailhead parking lot. More parking is available across the street at the National Wildlife Refuge’s Hunter Check Point Station.
Fee: $40/person for flight tickets. $35/person for mocktail tickets. Please make your flight selection when purchasing a ticket. If your preferred flight is unavailable, please send an email to montezuma@audubon.org and let us know what flight you would like.

This event is 21+, and winery staff may ask for identification. Since a portion of the day will be outdoors, please dress comfortably and appropriately. Binoculars will be available to borrow.
