Northfield Mountain, Waterfowl Prowl
March 29 @ 9:00 am - 11:00 am EDT
Waterfowl Prowl with naturalist, David Brown
Saturday, March 29th at 9:00 a.m.
March is a great month for watching waterfowl. As the ice thaws and water opens, ducks that have spent the winter in the coastal estuaries begin to migrate inland toward their summer nesting grounds. These colorful birds gather in mixed flocks in newly opened rivers and bays, providing us with the chance to observe them, often in large numbers.
Meet at the Northfield Mountain Recreation and Environment Center from where we will carpool/caravan to several observation points in the area. Dress warmly and bring binoculars. If you own a spotting scope, please bring that as well. This program is free and open to the public. No reservation is necessary. The trip will be led by David Brown, a local naturalist and birder of many years’ experience.
