Bird Watching: Fall Bird Migration
Advertisement
Fall migration is an exciting time for birds. Billions of birds leave their summer breeding sites for their winter homes in search of food. August through October are peak fall migration months, with some starting as early as late June and others in December. Soaring birds that rely on thermals migrate during the day. Long-distance migratory birds migrate at night and get refueled during the day. Scott Wilson, an avid birder and guide, will offer a guided walk to observe these migrating birds as they return to their winter home. Scott will discuss the birds that winter in the local area and those that migrate through. The group will learn about birds' calls and habitats, and use binoculars to spot them. Participants should wear comfortable walking or hiking shoes for the walk. The trail is relatively flat. Please bring binoculars.
