Litchfield Hills Audubon Society: Birding Around Newburyport, MA
February 21 - February 23
Dave Tripp will once again escort us around the Newburyport, Amesbury, and Salisbury areas in search of wintering northern birds. In the past, this trip has seen rare birds like Great Gray Owl, Boreal Chickadee, Varied Thrush, Townsend’s Solitaire, and Harris’ Sparrow. Other uncommon birds encountered in the past are Short-eared Owls, “White-winged” Gulls, Barrow’s Goldeneye, Rough-legged Hawks, and Northern Shrike. An added bonus is a day trip to Gloucester and Rockport on Cape Ann, which may add Razorbills, Thick-billed Murres, Harlequin Ducks, Black Guillemots, and more gulls and waterfowl.
If you are interested in going, email Dave at dtrippjr@gmail.com. We will stay at the Fairfield Inn in Amesbury; check websites like kayak.com or hotels.com to find the best rate.
