Each February, for four days, the world comes together for the love of birds. Over these four days we invite people to spend time in their favorite places watching and counting as many birds as they can find and reporting them to us. These observations help scientists better understand global bird populations before one of their annual migrations.

Join us for our 8th Annual Cleanup of Fish Creek, Fish Creek Linear Trail, Cravens Park and Fish Creek Neighborhood Park. We have something for everyone! Want a challenge? Wear your wading gear and get in the creek, or just rain boots if you're like me. Don't want that much adventure? Then walk along the trail and pick up whatever you see.
After 7 years and 40 tons of trash removed so far, because people still litter and illegally dump there is more to do.

Presentation: Third Act - Generational Party to Safeguard Our Climate and Democracy
Presenter: Al Hemmelgarn, Third Act Coordinator for the North Texas region
Founded by Bill McKibben in 2021, Third Act is an organization of Americans over 60 year of age determined to change the world for the better. Older Americans are the fastest-growing part of the U.S. population. 10,000 people a day pass the 60 mark. That means there is no way to make the changes that must be made to protect our planet and society unless we bring our power into play. As a generation we have unprecedented skills and resources that we can bring to bear. This presentation will provide an overview on the Third Act as an organization, including national objectives, Texas objectives, and North Texas initiatives.

Much of the suburban and urban landscape is managed in ways that undermine soil health, water systems, biodiversity, and long-term resilience. Forests are cleared, grasslands become lawns, and chemicals are used to maintain systems that require constant effort with little return.
In this webinar, Basil Camu offers a hopeful, practical alternative, drawing on two decades of experience through Leaf & Limb to show how working with natural systems can heal land, reduce maintenance, and build healthier, more resilient landscapes.
This webinar will be recorded and shared with registrants after the live premiere
