Invitation to Go Birdwatching with Audubon

ONEONTA — Delaware-Otsego Audubon Society invites local community members to join them in one or more of their upcoming bird watching field trips this spring. Birders with all levels of experience can attend to view returning spring migratory species as they travel through our region or settle in for the breeding season. Trips are planned to take place at a variety of locations throughout the region, with most trails providing easy to moderate terrain for walking. Participants should wear comfortable hiking shoes for various trail conditions (may be wet or muddy in places), and when possible, bring binoculars and their favorite bird guide. Full details about each walk can be found at https://doas.us/calendar/ .
