York County Audubon is pleased to announce that starting in February, we’ll be hosting a bird walk each month in a different location.  The first walk will start at Nubble Light in Cape Neddick, on Saturday, February 21^st from 9 am to 11 am.

Beginning birders are most welcome.  We will be happy to introduce you to the joy of birding, if you’re new to it.  More experienced birders are most welcome as well!

These walks are provided at no charge and advance registration is not required.  Please bring a pair of binoculars if you have them, but we will have some pairs available to borrow. And please dress warmly!!!  We’ll be looking for birds both on the ocean and in the neighborhoods within easy walking distance of the lighthouse. We will also have a spotting scope or two available.

We plan to host these morning walks on the third Saturday of each month. Please check our website or Facebook page for the location and other details.  The start time will get a little earlier as the season progresses, and may also vary with the tides if we’re birding near the shore.

We hope you can join us!
