Winter Birding Weekend

Join Adirondack Avian Guide, Joan Collins for Winter Birding adventures in the Adirondacks!

This winter, take a weekend birding trip in the Adirondacks. Participants will search for winter irruptive species like Bohemian Waxwings, and various winter finch species including Red and White-winged Crossbills, Pine Siskins, and Evening Grosbeaks, as well as year-round boreal residents such as the Ruffed Grouse, Black-backed Woodpecker, Canada Jay, and Boreal Chickadee. The food supply is plentiful this year, with an abundance of fruit and many conifer species boasting excellent cone crops. Red Crossbills, which nested in the late summer will likely nest again this winter. White-winged Crossbills and Pine Siskins are also arriving.

Registration is required to attend the field trips. Contact Joan Collins to register at JoanCollins@ADKAvian.com or 315-244-7127.

There is a maximum of 20 participants for each field trip.

The Winter Birding Weekend is sponsored by the Long Lake Parks and Recreation Department and cosponsored by Northern New York Audubon.
