Join biologist Nick Spero on a winter walk to look for bald eagles! This is a great time of year to see them! We may also see some Widgeon, Lesser Scaup, Hooded Mergansers, Common Mergansers, Bufflehead, and Redhead ducks.
Difficulty: Moderately Strenuous (derived from the combination of cold weather and trails—please don’t underestimate the cold!)
What to wear/bring: PREPARE FOR THE COLD!!! Dress in warm layers with non-cotton articles of clothing, and don’t forget to wear gloves, mittens, hats, scarves, etc.
Please wear sturdy closed toe shoes or boots. Bring binoculars and guidebooks if you have any!
As always this time of year, snow is a possibility! We will try to make the call the day before at the latest. The exact meetup location will be sent to registered participants the week before the field trip.
Nick Spero is a biologist who loves to observe wildlife. He was featured on NPR talking about foraging. Check out the awesome video HERE.
Nick, like most of the other people who lead NHSM field trips, is a volunteer, so your money will go directly to support the programs, the nature collections, and the building that make this kind of nature education possible.
