Halibut Point State Park, along the Atlantic migratory path, is an excellent locale for winter birding species you rarely see anywhere else.

Through this event, you’ll learn that harlequins, scoters, eiders, grebes, mergansers, loons, gannets and many more spend their winters on our shores. There is also a good possibility of seeing harbor seals that winter here! This is a 2-mile stroll along graded paths and the rocky coastline. You’ll learn how to identify some common and uncommon shore, migratory and feeder birds by sight and sound.

You will need

  • Sports clothes and shoes
  • To ensure all children are accompanied by an adult
  • Your binoculars, if you have any!
