Audubon CT Greenwich: Great Backyard Bird Count at Grass Island Park
Join Audubon Naturalists as we count waterbirds and land birds in Greenwich Harbor as part of the Cornell Lab of Ornithology’s annual Great Backyard Bird Count. Ducks, geese, loons, and gulls are some of the birds that we expect to see as they spend the winter on Long Island Sound. You will also get to help submit our findings to the bird count website and learn how you can submit your backyard counts too!
This IN-PERSON program has a limited capacity of 30 participants and will be held entirely outdoors.
Restrooms will not be available so please plan accordingly.
Tickets MUST be purchased in advance through our online ticket sales page. There will be no ticket sales at the door the day of the program.
