Description

This popular moving event is limited to 10 participants and fills quickly.

We will bird in five or six special habitats in the Cobscook Bay area to have the opportunity to see an inordinate variety of birds. Stops will be in spruce-fir forests, brush and pole stage timber, ocean and tidal flats, and fresh and tidal marshes—habitats for a great variety of birds from hummingbirds to Gannets.

This excursion will be at a leisurely pace to allow you to focus on new and/or favorite birds. Over the course of the day, it will be possible to see most of the birds expected to be in this area. Bring along waterproof boots and layers of clothing. Bug repellant and a refillable water bottle are recommended. Please bring a bag lunch with you, as we will be stopping for a picnic lunch sometime during the day.
