WINTER RAPTORS OF THE CT RIVER VALLEY
BY THE MASS AUDUBON ARCADIA WILDLIFE SANCTUARY
SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 20, 2021 AT 10 AM EST – 12 PM EST 127 COMBS ROAD, EASTHAMPTON, MA
Winter is a great time to observe raptors flying over fields in search of food. The east and west meadows in Northampton are ideal spots for us to view these birds, including red-tailed hawks, northern harriers, and even hardier falcons that frequently visit our site. Depending on hawk sightings and snow cover, our location may change, visiting Hadley or other locations. Groups are limited to 11 preregistered participants. A detailed confirmation letter will be emailed 24 hours before the program. Members: $15; non-members: $18. Remember to register by clicking on tickets.
