The winter wrens are back in Overton Park, and we're expecting other winter residents like white-throated sparrows, yellow-rumped warblers, and rusty blackbirds any time now. Join us this Saturday morning at 8:00 AM at East Parkway Pavilion for a free Songbird Stroll, where we'll see what this week's southerly migration has brought us. Bring your own binoculars or borrow ours!

Songbird Strolls is sponsored by Wild Birds Unlimited Memphis. by @overtonpark

What should the Overton Park of the future look like? Earlier this year, we asked you for your opinions on potential improvements to the Rainbow Lake and East Parkway areas. More than 2,000 people responded and gave us thoughtful feedback on pavilions, programming, and more. But with more than 1.3 million visits every year, we know there are a lot more people we need to hear from. So we're opening the survey back up through the end of this year to make sure we hear from everyone who wants to weigh in! Swipe to read some of the early feedback, and if you haven't taken the survey yet, head to the link in our bio to give us your opinions. Your Park. Your Voice. Help shape the future of Overton Park. by @overtonpark
