Contact Miles at (603) 525-3394 or by email to join the waitlist.

Join avid birders Kim Snyder and Nate Marchessault to search for seabirds, shorebirds, and maybe even Snowy Owls along the 8-mile barrier beach and adjacent marshes of Plum Island — a prime spot for winter birding. After welcomes and introductions, we’ll carpool between points of interest in the Parker River National Wildlife Refuge and vicinity. Bring lunch and binoculars (or borrow some from us), and dress for the weather.

10 a.m. to 5 p.m. at Plum Island in Newburyport, Massachusetts. Directions to the exact meeting location will be provided prior to the event. Space is limited, and registration is full. For general information about Harris Center field trips, see our Outings Information page. For more information about this particular outing, including questions about accessibility, contact Nate.

Co-sponsored by the Harris Center for Conservation Education and the Monadnock Bird and Nature Club.
