What’s That Bird? Birdwatching For Beginners.

On Labor Day, Monday, September 1, Mass Audubon’s Joppa Flats Education Center is offering special birdwatching trips for entry-level bird watchers. It happens to everyone. Something feathered flies by, shows up at your feeder, or lands by your beach towel, and suddenly it hits you: What is that bird?

You’re invited to ask that question and all the others you have about our avian friends on this guided trip around one of the best locations for seeing birds in New England.

This program is especially good for people who have little to no experience identifying birds, but everyone is welcome.
