Join us on our first Nature Sketchbook outing of 2024 at Jericho Beach Park! This park has great views of the North Shore mountains from paths along the water and is a “hotspot” for birdwatching. Resident great blue herons, kingfishers, Anna’s hummingbirds, spotted towhees, kinglets and a variety of songbirds are typically seen. The Eurasian wigeons may even still be there. There are several trails through the forested areas and many wild (domestic) rabbits make good sketch subjects. We may even spot a few Pacific tree frogs! Sketching in nature is a great way to unwind, learn about local wildlife and plants and explore your creative side. Come out and get curious while exploring mysteries of the natural world. 

All are welcome to this casual sketching session. Bring a pencil or pen; a notepad or sketchbook; and any other favorite, portable art materials if you have them. Dress for the weather. Bring a snack, hat and water bottle.
