2SLGBTQ+ Pride Bird Walk - 6/15/24

Friends of Ballona Wetlands invites 2SLGBTQ+ communities to join a birding nature walk in honor of Pride Month. The Ballona Wetlands is the second largest open space and the last coastal wetlands in Los Angeles. Outdoor spaces, like Ballona, should be a space where people of any identity feel safe and welcomed.

Our Manager of Communications and Community Engagement, Samaya Rubio and Docent Calvin Bonn will lead you through the Ballona Wetlands and surrounding areas, where you’ll learn about birds, ecology, and history.
