Embark on a leisurely stroll through nature’s aviary with past president of the Association of Field Ornithologists, Elissa Landre. Learn the secrets of chirps and tweets, as you travel through this wildlife sanctuary. You will discover a symphony of sights and sounds from our feathered friends. Unplug, unwind and let the wings guide you on this enchanting adventure.
We will explore field, forest and wetlands looking for resident nesters like Black-capped Chickadees (our state bird), migrants like Palm Warblers, and occasional visitors including the Bald Eagle. Wear good walking shoes, bring binoculars, cameras and your curiosity. Insect repellent recommended.
Location
Both bird walks will take place in Natick, MA. Parking is easy and abundant.
About Mass Audubon
Mass Audubon is the largest nature-based conservation organization in New England. Founded in 1896 by two women who fought for the protection of birds, Mass Audubon carries on their legacy by focusing on the greatest challenges facing the environment today: the loss of biodiversity, inequitable access to nature and climate change.
With the help of our 160,000 members and supporters, we protect wildlife, conserve and restore resilient land; advocate for impactful environmental policies,; offer nationally recognized education programs for adults and children; and provide endless opportunities to experience the outdoors at our wildlife sanctuaries.
