Birdwatching 101: Field Trips

Please note the 4/12 field trip has been postponed to 4/26.

Observe local birds on these birdwatching field trips. We will focus on different strategies for locating and identifying birds based on their appearance, songs and calls, behavior, and habitat. To get the most out of field trips, attendance at the Birdwatching 101 class is highly encouraged. Binoculars are highly recommended.

Ben Brown-Steiner seriously got into birdwatching while a graduate student at Cornell University, where he took recreational classes at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology. Since moving to Boston, Ben has become heavily invested in songbirds and shorebirds, and travels around exploring the many nooks and crannies where he can find birds in and within New England.
