Join avid birders Wendy Gibbons and Jane Wing for an introduction to birding at the Dillant-Hopkins Airport, a local birding hot spot with great views of wetlands, woods, and fields. Our 3-mile roundtrip route will take us along a flat paved road through habitats ideal for spring migrants, including raptors, ducks, shorebirds, and songbirds. As we go, we’ll share some easily recognized bird calls, behaviors, and natural history to help you appreciate how birds provide ecosystem services that benefit us all. If you already know your feeder birds and want to up your game, this walk is for you! Families with children are welcome. Bring binoculars (or borrow a pair from us), and dress for the weather.

9 to 11 a.m. at the Dillant-Hopkins Airport in Swanzey. Exact meeting location will be provided prior to the event. Space is limited, and registration is full. To add your name to the waitlist, contact Miles Stahmann.
