Beach Birds of Summer
Join CMBO Program Coordinator Adehl Schwaderer and CMBO Naturalists to search the Cape May beaches and marshes for gulls, terns, and shorebirds! In summer, Cape May’s beaches attract an interesting range of terns, gulls, and shorebirds, and this Special Field Trip offers a golden opportunity the subtle beauty of these birds. Common, Forster’s and Least Terns are plentiful at this time, and there may be a few Royal Terns and Black Skimmers around. We’ll search for uncommon gulls among the cadre of common species, and spend time looking at shorebirds, migrant and resident, such as American Oystercatchers, Sanderlings, Willets, and more!
