The Cape Ann and Newburyport/Plum Island, Massachusetts areas are prime winter birding locations. We expect to divide our time between Cape Ann’s shoreline and Newburyport/Plum Island looking for white-winged gulls, wintering sea ducks such as Harlequins, scoters, eiders and other winter visitors like Purple Sandpipers, loons, grebes, alcids, field birds, Snowy Owls, etc. Participants will have Friday to travel at their leisure so that we can begin birding as a group first thing Saturday morning. Limit eight participants. By Club policy, this overnight trip is for members, with non-members accommodated if room is available and at the leader’s discretion.

RESERVATIONS REQUIRED. Contact Gregg Recer by January 18th to reserve a spot and for hotel reservation information.
