Birding Outing at Piscataquog River Park

Join us to look for birds at Piscataquog River Park in Manchester! This outing will be led by local birder and New Hampshire Audubon volunteer, Joe Mahoney, and will focus on our wildlife refuge’s summer residents with some possible fall migrants showing up. This walk will cross through mostly forest and river habitats, and we can expect to see birds such as Gray Catbirds, Mallards, and Red-Tailed Hawks. All ages and skill levels of birders are welcome. If you are new to birding, come and learn the basics! If you are an avid birder, come to learn new techniques, network with other birders, or share your expertise with the group. This is a free event. A limited number of binoculars will be available to borrow, but please bring your own if you have them! Dress for the weather with sturdy shoes. Expect to walk between 1-2 miles over varied trails with some elevation change through grassy and wooded terrain. Trails may be soggy or muddy in the rainy season. Please leave pets at home for this outing. By attending this event, you and anyone you register on behalf of agree to NH Audubon’s Outdoor Education Program Liability Release & Agreement Waiver.
