Birding Programs at Mass Audubon

Massachusetts regularly records over 300 different species of birds every year. It's also home to some of the most important "stopover" sites for migratory birds in eastern North America. Which means, no matter the season, it's always a great time to go birding!
Whether you're a veteran birder or using binoculars for the first time, you'll find a wide variety of programs, classes, and trips suited to your experience level at Mass Audubon wildlife sanctuaries across the state.
