Sachuest Point NWR and Rhode Island Coast
February 22, 2020 @ 7:00 am - 5:00 pm
This all-day trip includes stops at Sachuest Point NWR, Beavertail State Park, Moonstone Beach, Trustum Pond, and other great birding sites on the RI coast. We will see lots of sea ducks including all three scoter species, Common Eider, and Harlequin Duck. We’ll look for birds of prey, including Rough-legged Hawk and several owl species. We’ll also be on the lookout for alcids and rare gulls. Dress warmly—it’s likely to be cold and windy on the coast. The walk is a bit strenuous. Meet at the Gilford commuter lot, Exit 57 off I-95. Note: the yearbook referenced exit 55. This ramp is closed.
the rain date is February 23.
