Upcoming Field Trips

The Ediz Hook field trip is on November 15th from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. Meet by the restrooms across from Harborview Park at the east end of Ediz Hook, near the entrance to the Coast Guard station. Led by Ben Hannah and Gary Bullock, the trip focuses on looking for birds in the water, but some shorebirds are often found here as well, like Black-bellied Plovers, and Black Oystercatchers. Cormorants, loons, grebes, a wide variety of ducks, and alcids such as Common Murres are commonly observed. With luck, Rhinoceros Auklets and Marbled Murrelets, along with raptors such as Bald Eagles, Red-tailed Hawks, and Peregrine Falcons may be spotted.
