Cape Ann Winter Birding Weekend
For birders, the North Shore of Massachusetts is an excellent year round birding location.
The Cape Ann region of the North Shore is known to birdwatchers worldwide for its exciting concentrations of winter seabirds.
Loons, grebes, gannets, sea ducks, alcids, and gulls gather in impressive concentrations and variety, and a careful exploration of the area’s gorgeous coastal geography is quite likely to turn up such winter bird specialties as the Cape Ann Winter Birding Weekend’s logo bird, the Harlequin Duck.
If you want to enjoy a winter weekend of birding in the Cape Ann region of Massachusetts, make plans to attend the Cape Ann Winter Birding Weekend.
Working with the Mass Audubon Society, the Cape Ann Chamber of Commerce has a weekend filled with opportunity for bird lovers of all skill levels to join expert guides on a tour of Cape Ann’s birding hot spots- including a sea trip on the 7 Seas Whale Watch boat the Privateer IV (weather permitting!
Sixty-five different species of birds were observed during the 2009 Cape Ann Winter Birding Weekend. Twenty-six were spotted right from the window of the Elks!
The Sunday morning boat trip was filled with excitement and five species of alcids were seen during the trip.
