All are welcome!

You don’t need to be an Audubon member or have advanced birding skills to participate. Event organizer Midcoast Audubon simply hopes to instill interest in the natural world through an understanding of how birds live and thrive in our area.

Currently, Midcoast Audubon requires that participants over the age of twelve be fully vaccinated against Covid-19.

***********************************************

Join Trip Leader (and Coastal Rivers Trustee) Dennis McKenna to look for early migrants at Salt Bay Farm in Damariscotta. Walk the meadow looking for Savannah Sparrows and Bobolinks, scan the pond for ducks and geese, investigate the forest edges for early migrating warblers and songbirds, and then scan Great Salt Bay for gulls, ducks, Osprey and Belted Kingfishers. To start the day, the group will meet at 8:00 AM at the Coastal Rivers Conservation Trust parking lot at 110 Belvedere Road.

For more information, or in the event of inclement weather, please call Dennis McKenna at 207-563-8439 (home) or cell 207-522-2891.
