Field Trip: South Coastal Area of Maine

Join us as we focus on the Ogunquit area and north including the Cliff Walk at Marginal Way and the Cliff House resort. The Cliff House offers sweeping ocean views that make for wonderful sea birding. A footpath along the rocky shoreline near Perkins Cove offers extensive views where ducks and seabirds can be readily observed. We typically see Harlequin Ducks, Purple Sandpipers and a variety of vociferous Scoters. Dress warmly!

We will meet at the Perkins Cove parking lot (on Perkins Cove Road across from Barnacle Billy’s Seafood) at 8:30 am. For more information, or in the event of inclement weather, please call the Trip Leader, Dennis McKenna, at (207) 563-8439.

All are welcome! You don’t need to be an Audubon member or have advanced birding skills to join us. We simply hope to instill interest in the natural world through an understanding of how birds live and thrive in our area.

Continuing in 2023, we require that participants over the age of twelve be fully vaccinated against Covid-19.
