Tour notes from Eric:

In February we see the arrival of early migrants for the spring shorebird season, which continues through May. On these tours we will focus on the thousands of birds as they fly during high tide and feed in the salt marshes during lower tides.

These long-distance migrants arrive to feast on protein-rich horseshoe crab eggs, mollusks, and crustaceans. In just three to four weeks, they can double their body weight before departing for summer nesting grounds as far as the Arctic. You will also have the chance to witness their magnificent transformation from monotone winter coats to vibrant summer plumage.

Additionally, from March through early May, we have excellent opportunities to observe Bald Eagle families as the chicks begin to fledge and practice flying near their nests.

We have scheduled dates to align with the best light and tide levels for prime photo opportunities. If you would like to book a private or group tour, please review the available dates on my website calendar. Once you have a preferred date, feel free to call or email me to discuss logistics.

Please note that tours are limited to four people. Upon booking, I will provide your group with departure updates, directions to the boat launch, and a list of suggested equipment and attire.
