While most bird lovers don’t associate March with spring migration, a unique and underappreciated suite of bird species starts to migrate at this time. Given the right conditions, spectacular movements of robins, blackbirds, geese, and cranes may be seen, sometimes numbering in the thousands.

Unlike the warblers of peak spring, March migrants are often seen actively migrating in the hours after sunrise. With a smaller number of species to worry about, this makes for an ideal opportunity to start learning how to identify birds in flight!

Meeting Details: Meeting time is 7AM. Meeting spot is TBD but will be posted here/shared with registrants via email prior to the event.

Trip Leader: Woody Goss

There is no capacity limit, but registration is required.
