Join us to observe resident birds and fall migrants in a unique urban habitat that is a favorite for many bird species, including uncommon and rare birds. Birders of all levels will enjoy this walk. The trails are (generally) flat and easy to walk. A water bottle, water proof clothing including a hat, sunblock & insect repellent are recommended.

This free walk is conducted jointly with Mass. Audubon Boston Nature Center and preregistration is required as walk sizes are limited. Please register by emailing copying neil.calabro1@mac.com. 

Meeting spot: RPM Fitness lot, 120 Banks St. Winthrop. There is a chain link fence with (worn out, not easy to see) signs authorizing public parking alongside the fence. Park in front of that fence. You’ll see a sign in the far back of the lot that says Belle Isle Marsh Marine Ecology Park. Meet in front of the sign. Please don’t park in a spot that says for gym only.

Public transit: Nearest MBTA stop is Blue Line Orient Heights. It’s a 32 minute walk.
