Share Your Sightings
After your visit, take a few minutes to submit your bird sightings to Mass Audubon’s eBird page, a collaboration with the Cornell Lab of Ornithology.
Birding Hot Spots
The sanctuary has several well-maintained and monitored birding spots for beginners and experts alike, such as the top of the drumlin, out in our edge-habitat crops fields, and in our Red Pine forests.
Bird Hill
When you visit Drumlin Farm, you have an opportunity to see many of our native wildlife in three unique exhibits, including Bird Hill. Drumlin Farm provides a long-term home for these rehabilitated, injured, or human-habituated wildlife, who would not be able to survive in the wild on their own.
Walking along the trail on Bird Hill you can encounter most of the raptors that live in Massachusetts. Depending on the season, hawks, falcons, owls, and vultures look back at you from their enclosures.
Near the birds of prey, you will have the chance to observe a group of ground-dwelling, chicken-like birds—ring-necked pheasants.
