Description

Plum Island in Newburyport, MA is one of the best birding destinations on the Eastern Seaboard and attracts birds in all seasons due to a wide variety of habitats. There is always something to see! Join two members of our MRFRS family, Brit and Susan (who are both avid birders) for this fun day trip in spring of 2021. No guarantees, but you may see migratory birds including warblers, vireos, flycatchers, terns, egrets, and many more!


The outing will begin at 7:30 a.m. where you'll meet up with Brit and Susan at Parker River National Wildlife Refuge on Plum Island. Public restrooms are available. Approximate end time is 1 p.m.
