Block Island Weekend

Description

Block Island is a beautiful island located approximately 12 miles off the Rhode Island coast. While small, it offers a large variety of habitats for wildlife and spectacular scenery. With its offshore location and many protected areas, Block Island is a natural resting and feeding area for migratory birds. During the fall the island is a haven for land birds that stray out over the ocean during their southward migration. We expect to see a variety of songbirds, shorebirds, and birds of prey.
