Fall Bird Walk at Belle Isle, Winthrop Side

Description

Join us to observe resident birds and fall migrants in a unique urban habitat that is a favorite stomping ground for many bird species. A BNC naturalist will help us find and identify birds through field marks, sounds, and behaviors. Birders of all levels will enjoy these guided walks; beginning birders are encouraged to come! The trails are flat and easy to walk.

Target birds include Common Raven; Dowitchers & Yellowlegs; Glossy Ibis, Green Heron; Osprey; Oystercatcher; Peregrine Falcon; Semi-Palmated Plovers & Sandpipers; Saltmarsh Sparrow; Snowy Egret; Tree, Rough-Winged, & Barn Swallows; Little Blue Heron; Virginia Rail; Willet, Yellow-crowned Night-Heron.
