Spring Bird Walk at Squantum Point Park

Description

Discover the birding treasures of Squantum Point Park in Quincy as winter transitions into spring! This compact yet remarkably diverse hotspot has earned its top eBird rating for good reason. Multiple habitats converge in one small area, creating exceptional opportunities for birders.

Watch for lingering winter visitors like Scoters and Long-Tailed Ducks on the water, while keeping an eye out for the season's first arrivals, including the distinctive Eastern Phoebe. The park's habitat variety packs impressive bird diversity into a surprisingly small space, making every visit rewarding as the seasons shift.
