Birds and Brews - Guided Bird Walks

First Magnitude and the Alachua Audubon Society have teamed up to host monthly bird walks!

This event meets the first Sunday of each month – **Be sure to check the start time each month as it will vary through the year.** – in front of the drift mural in the warehouse by the entrance to The Source taproom.

The group, led by volunteers from the Alachua Audubon Society, will start walking over to Depot Park 15 minutes after the meeting time. Once at Depot Park, an hour-long guided tour will identify our lovely aerial pals!

The tour should return to the brewery an hour later, giving you time to have a nighthawk…er…nightcap!

This bird walk is more informal than most and all birding skill levels are welcome; enthusiasm is what matters! Bring your binoculars and a thirst for good craft beer (and if you don’t have your binoculars, stop by anyway, because we’ll have binoculars to loan out).
