The Ocean State Bird Club offers walks, talks, and other events throughout the calendar year with more walk activities offered during peak migration months of Spring and Fall. We have dynamic, informative leaders willing to help beginning birders or talk shop with those who are more experienced. Some walks will be designed specifically to help beginner and intermediate birders sharpen their skills. We are always looking for volunteers to host walks. Your knowledge of a specific location can be very beneficial to those who are not as familiar with it. Here is a list of upcoming events.
Happy Birding!
