Field Trips

Field trips are open to non-members as well as members. Feel free to phone or e-mail the field trip leader or contact person ahead of time to obtain further information, directions or restrictions (e.g. dogs are not normally allowed on field trips). Registration is usually required to help manage group sizes and everyone will be asked to sign a waiver.

Ideas and suggestions for future trips are welcome. You do not need to be an expert to lead a field trip, and the trip does not need to last all day. You just need to share your favourite birding spots. Any questions, comments or suggestions, as well as all field trip reports should be directed to the Events Editor, Angie Millard. Email: fieldtripcoordinator@nsbirdsociety.ca

Peggy's Cove Drop-in
Sunday, November 27, 2022, 07:30am - 10:30am
Date: Saturday November 27, 2022 from 07:30am to 10:30am

Meet at the lighthouse at Peggy's Cove anytime between 7:30 and 10:30am.  I will be stationed at the lighthouse with a spotting scope and will be showing people the typical early winter bird life around Peggy's Cove.  Depending on the weather we may see Alcids, Cormorants, Gulls, Winter ducks like Harlequin Ducks, Scoters, Loons and Grebes.  If we're lucky, the wind will be strong off the water and that will bring the birds closer to shore.
 
It is a short walk along the trail to the lighthouse to get a good view of the ocean and the birds that are around the area.  Please bring your own binoculars, scope and/or cameras and field guides as needed.  Light rain will be tolerated and strong winds are hoped for.
