NJ Audubon: Manasquan Inlet and Beach
NJ Audubon: Manasquan Inlet and Beach
Join Associate Naturalist Dave Oster to bird Manasquan Inlet and beach for shorebirds. We'll first bird the back portion of the inlet for any seabirds that may be around. Last June a King Eider and Black-headed Gull were present. We'll then walk about a third of a mile to the beach entrance and cross to the jetty. Highlight here is a marvelous and very active colony of nesting Black Skimmers and Least and Common Terns, and sometimes Oystercatcher. Birds can be easily viewed from the jetty and there are great opportunities for photos. Next we'll spend some time scanning the ocean from the tip of the jetty. Wilson's Storm-petrels are regular in June, often quite close in. Further offshore we may be able to spot Shearwaters, and a few Gannets are typically around. June is also good for whales--last year Dave watched a Fin whale repeatedly breach within binocular range. Potential for lots of sun exposure so protection is recommended. Please bring your own binoculars, and spotting scope if desired. There will be no equipment available to borrow. Ticket sales end on 6/24/2022 at 4:00 PM. Registration required. Walk-ins will not be permitted to participate. COST: $15 members, $20 nonmembers. Interested in becoming a member? Please click on the following link to learn more or join: Become a Member today!

Be sure to check the forecast in advance and dress in layers appropriate for prevailing weather conditions. The weather in Cape May can differ considerably from nearby inland areas and may be warmer, colder, or windier so it’s best to be over prepared. We may have to bird in the rain, so please bring your rain gear. TRANSPORTATION: We may walk up to 1.5 miles, over generally level, sometimes muddy or sandy terrain. Some trips involve walks over jetties. NEW JERSEY AUDUBON'S PROGRAM GUIDELINES: All NJ counties are considered medium to low COVID-19 community levels. New Jersey Audubon highly recommends that anyone who is not fully vaccinated, wants additional protection, or comes from a higher community level area should consider wearing a mask and social distancing, especially indoors. Please do not come to a program if you are sick, have a sick family member or have reason to believe you may have been exposed to the COVID-19 virus. CANCELLATION: NJ Audubon’s CMBO programs are virtually never cancelled. If we cancel, due to lack of participation, severe weather, or unforeseen circumstances, all participants will be notified as soon as possible and are eligible for a full refund. Participants may cancel without penalty if greater than 48 hours in advance. Sorry, no refund for cancellations less than 48 hours in advance unless due to health emergencies; however, registrations can be transferred to another program in the future. We reserve the right to substitute leaders if necessary, though this rarely happens. REGISTER HERE

Birding Cape May Point
Birding Cape May Point
With its diversity of habitat – beach, dunes, ponds, forest, and marsh – Cape May Point is the perfect spot for great year-round birding. We'll look for breeding songbirds, waterbirds, terns and the chance of a passing migrant. We’ll travel the trails, check out CMBO’s Northwood Center and other surrounding hotspots on The Point. Join us every Saturday for 2 hours of birding at the Cape May Point State Park and let us share with you the wonder of this special time of year. PREREGISTRATION REQUIRED.
