Birds of Massachusetts: Shorebird Migration

Shorebirds are avian superstars with Herculean migrations, unique feeding adaptations, and elaborate courtship displays. Enrich your understanding of these incredible species passing through on both ends of migration. Once decimated by market hunting, shorebirds have shown remarkable resiliency as their habitats continue to shrink, providing important metrics in our understanding of the effects of climate change and sea level rise. Find out where and when to observe shorebirds, along with tips on visual and vocal identifications.

Each Birds of Massachusetts session stands alone, but if you register for the full series before it starts on April 21, you get all 6 sessions for the price of 5. Recordings will be sent to registrants after each program.
