This is a two-hour walk exploring the four corners of the Public Garden, where a surprising number of interesting migrants have found their way in the springtime.
We’ll walk about 3 miles or mostly even terrain exploring 400 acre urban wildlife sanctuary looking for woodpeckers, raptors, ducks, herons and migrating song birds. There may be a $4 trail fee for Non-Mass Audubon Members. Beginners welcome!
Please join us on April 24 for our Annual Members Meeting. The evening begins with a social hour at 6:30. The program starts at 7:30 with the BBC’s annual business meeting and the election of new officers and board members. Once we have concluded with club business and announcements we will go the evening’s speaker.
A leisurely three-quarter mile loop around Baker's Pond at Daniel Boone Park in Ipswich to look for newly arrived migrants. Recommended for those looking to learn more about birding by ear and migration. Open to beginners. Be prepared for areas of mud on the trail. Boots recommended.
A 3 to 4 mile walk along level gravel paths along the woods edge, old cranberry bogs and reservoir. We will search for the locally breeding Sandhill Cranes and early migrants. The American Bittern is more often heard than seen and waterfowl should be plentiful.
