Naturalist, photographer, and expert birder John Green will be the guide for your eyes and your ears, as you experience the unfolding of the season through the world of birds. In early Spring, as daylight hours are advancing, migrating songbirds are slowly returning to New England. Our three bird walks are timed to observe successive waves of returning migratory species from early to late spring. These walks will be particularly instructive in bird calls and songs, an integral part of bird identification. On these short walks we have identified over fifty species in the past! Along the way, we will witness the progression of spring, from wildflowers on the forest floor to tree leaves in the forest canopy.You may join one or more walks as your schedule permits. These early morning walks will be a fun and educational way to usher in the season! The programs will be held in the area around the spectacular Quabbin Reservoir.
