This walk will include bird identification tips (including seabirds and ducks), how to survey waterbirds, and information about community-led efforts to protect Dartmouth Cove from in-filling. We will start with freshwater ducks at Sullivan’s Pond and then walk to Dartmouth Cove where we’ll look for coastal waterbirds, such as Long-tailed Duck and Black Guillemot.
