See Leakin Park in a new way with the Baltimore Bird Club! New birders will benefit from the expert advice of local residents Elise and Paul who have been birding in the Park for decades. You will be pleasantly surprised at the number and variety of avian species supported by the Park.
Experienced birders will wish to know that Leakin Park is a 100+acre park in West Baltimore which contains mature and secondary forest as well as riparian habitats and some limited field habitat. The Park is poised to become a partnership park with the State of Maryland. We are hoping adding the State resources will allow for improved conservation and maintenance in this gorgeous forested Park.
It is recommended that you register by email at ekreiss@verizon.net or 410-367-8194, so that you may be updated in case of changes. Leaders: Elise and Paul Kreiss.
Info about all Baltimore Bird Club events this year may be found on their website
We welcome adults and kids 10+ who can focus on quiet, contemplative activity. Kids have sharp eyes, and therefore make great birders! Please bring your own binoculars.
Please leave your dogs at home.
This is one of several naturalist-led hikes we are planning in 2026. If you would like to keep apprised of all of our events, please subscribe to our newsletter.
