If this year is typical, the new lime green-colored leaves will be breaking their buds at this time, signaling the transition from when birding can be done more effectively by eye than ear. With conservation biologist Jim Arrigoni, we’ll also look for spring ephemeral wildflowers on the forest floor, soaking up the last rays of sun before fresh foliage casts its shadow. If we’re lucky, we’ll also enjoy the sound of toads trilling in the ponds and wetlands at Deer Pond Farm.
Allow for an average of two hours and 1.5 -2 miles. Dress for the weather. Inclement weather cancels. Bring binoculars, camera, water bottle, walking stick and a sense of adventure. Binoculars are available to borrow.

Spring is prime time bird watching for the experienced, beginners and all levels in between! Join Miley Bull, senior director of science and conservation, on these guided walks through the diverse habitats of Deer Pond Farm to look, listen and learn about our warmer weather visiting birds.

Allow for an average of two hours and 1.5 -2 miles. Dress for the weather. Think head, hands and feet! Wool hats, gloves and socks are really good choices. Bring water bottle, walking stick, binoculars, camera, sunscreen, bug spray and a sense of adventure. Inclement weather cancels.

Explore the Cape, Chatham to Provincetown, in Springtime when the Cape is quiet and the bustle of summer tourism has yet to begin. Besides scouring the beaches and inlets, you will have many activities to keep you busy and intrigued with all that can be found at the edges of a marine environment and the world's largest glacial peninsula. Travelers will stop to visit Massachusetts Audubon's facility in Wellfleet, the Cape Cod National Seashore, and spend time enjoying the birds, gardens, and beaches in Provincetown, Falmouth, Chatham, and Eastham. Participants will be magically absorbed into the early spring wildness of the outer Cape: its grass topped dunes, sprawling beaches, and ceaseless crashing waves. Leader: Rami Haxhi
