DETROIT, MI -- A sunny 53-degree day is forecast this weekend when the Michigan Department of Natural Resources scheduled a nature walk through the woods of Belle Isle, a 982-acre state park in Detroit.

The tour, appropriate for all ages, begins at 10 a.m. Saturday at the Belle Isle Nature Zoo parking lot and is expected to last an hour.

"Many different types of wildlife call Belle Isle home," DNR wildlife outreach technician Holly Vaughn said. "Some make their living by hunting other animals, while some prefer to munch on plants. We'll talk about the creatures that live on the island and how they interact with the animals around them."

Participants are asked to "dress for the weather" and wear boots. No registration is required.

The DNR originally scheduled the hike in March but cancelled when the hike leader twisted her ankle leading up to the event.

The DNR has managed the park since Feb. 2014 and is offering monthly programming through May, the last a warbler hike on May 9, focusing on migratory birds -- warblers, vireos, tanagers and more -- that return to the island each spring.

Questions about the programming may be directed to Vaugh at 313-396-6863.
