Go Birding At Kenilworth Park and Aquatic Gardens!

Kenilworth Park & Aquatic Gardens

Open year-round, Kenilworth Park and Aquatic Gardens offers an excellent opportunity for birdwatching. The river, marshes, and hardwood trees offers a diverse habitat for finding birds. Over 240 birds have been sighted at the park!

Birdwatching, or birding, is a great outdoor activity at Kenilworth Aquatic Gardens. Kenilworth is home to both migratory and year-round resident birds. The Park's diverse habitats attract shore birds, wading birds, raptors, ducks, warblers, sparrows, owls and woodpeckers. Over 240 species of birds have been sighted in Kenilworth Park and Aquatic Gardens. The best time to spot birds is early in the morning once we open, but you can find birds here all day. Bring your binoculars if you have them and a bird identification book as you never know what you may see.
