Birding Basics- Saturday Field Trips

Are you interested in learning more about the popular hobby of birding? The Roger Tory Peterson Estuary Center (RTPEC) is offering biweekly outings to local birding hot spots to observe winter populations of birds. Join us for Birding Basics, our free program for adults. To date, we have enjoyed forays to Long Island Sound and Estuary habitats that maximize species diversity. You can read more about our past walks here.

The Rockfall Foundation supports Environmental Programming in Middlesex County.

Each Birding Basics  program begins at 9 AM when we gather for a quick binocular and field guide tutorial followed by an hour-long walk while we identify birds. We will address environmental concerns that threaten our birds, including the affects of  habitat loss and climate change. 

Email agraham@ctaudubon.org to RSVP or with questions.

Our next walk will be at 10 a.m. (not 9!) on June 3 at Meig’s Point, Hammonasset State Park.  See you there!
