Birds of Westport

Description

Come explore the scenic Westport and Tiverton area, which has become a hotspot for rarities due to its habitat diversities. We will explore a wide range of habitats for an array of wintering species; thickets for Chats, fields for wintering passerines like Pipits and Fox Sparrows, forests for Sapsuckers. Throw in a variety of all the duck and coastal waterfowl species and the day's list is sure to be impressive.
