Free! Spring Bird Walk at Eastern Point Wildlife Sanctuary

Mass Audubon’s Ipswich River Wildlife Sanctuary is offering a free bird walk at Eastern Point Wildlife Sanctuary in Gloucester on Wednesday, May 8 from 9:00-11:00 a.m. Join Ipswich River Wildlife Sanctuary Director Amy Weidensaul for a walk that will traverse beautiful coastline and wetlands as well as forested habitat. We’ll search for migrating birds such as wood-warblers and flycatchers in the woodland edges, and for nesting birds such as Eastern Bluebirds, Bobolinks, and Field Sparrows in the grassland. We’ll also pay close attention to birdsong as we spend a slow-paced morning enjoying the nature of Massachusetts. Bring binoculars if you have them, or let us know when you register if you need to borrow a pair.

This program is supported in part by a grant from the Gloucester Cultural Council, a local agency which is supported by the Massachusetts Cultural Council, a state agency. Space is limited, and advance registration is required. To reserve your spot and get directions, call 978-887-9264 or register online at massaudubon.org/ipswichriver.
