Shorebird Workshop at the Coastal Center at Milford Point

August 25, 2018 8:00 am - 11:00 am Coastal Center at Milford Point
Coastal Center at Milford Point
1 Milford Point Road
Milford, CT 06460

(Rain date: Sunday, August 26)

Sharpen your shorebird identification skills at Milford Point, one of the best places to see shorebirds in the state!

Connecticut Audubon Executive Director Patrick Comins and other experts will conduct an indoor session followed by outdoor field study. Thousands of shorebirds gather at Milford Point in August to rest and feed on their migration south. You can expect (or hope) to see Semipalmated, Baird’s (shown at left), Buff-Breasted, Stilt, White-rumped, Pectoral, and Western sandpipers, among others.

This event is co-sponsored by the Connecticut Ornithological Association (COA) and the Connecticut Audubon Society.

Meet in the Coastal Center parking lot. The workshop is free and open to COA and Connecticut Audubon members and non-members alike.

Contact Chris Loscalzo at closcalz@optonline.net or 203-389-6508.

Family Friendly Ponds, Wetlands & Streams Aug 25

August 25, 2018 9:00 am - 11:00 am Deer Pond Farm
Deer Pond Farm
57 Wakeman Hill Road
Sherman, CT 06784

This walk will focus on the variety of freshwater habitats of Deer Pond Farm and the fascinating animals that depend on them. Water is essential for life, and even though it is all around us, it is like another world. Many strange animals are doing interesting things under the water’s surface, which we’ll observe with dry feet from the water’s edge.
