New England: Leaders' Choice Getaway
Adult Trip

Program Location: New England
Leaders: Bill Gette, Joppa Flats Sanctuary Director; Dave Weaver, Birder's Certificate Program graduate
Fee: $285 m / $335 nm
Dates: February 25, 2010-February 26, 2010

Join Bill and Dave for an adventure into the winter wonderland of New England. The goal of this two-day, one-night trip is to seek out winter specialties. We will chase after rarities such as northern owls or rare gulls, of course, but our main focus is to find winter finches (pine grosbeak, red and white-winged crossbills), redpolls, and Bohemian waxwings. Our destination will depend on the most recent reports. On previous trips, we have had fabulous looks at evening and pine grosbeaks, both redpolls, gray jays, a northern hawk owl, and bobcats! We promise fun, a place to sleep, and some great birds.
