Explore the bird diversity of the Assabet River National Wildlife Refuge. We walk along White Pond Rd (Trail), searching for both resident and migrant songbirds and raptors. Some notable species previously observed at this location include Cooper’s Hawk, Barred Owls, and numerous species of warblers and other migratory songbirds. The habitat is mostly forested, with some wetlands, fields and scrubs along the way. The terrain is mostly flat and leveled, mix if pavement and sand and gravel. Cosponsored and led by US Fish & Wildlife Service staff.

BBC field trips are open to all participants. Unless otherwise stated, all trips are free to attend and do not need preregistration. You do not need to be a club member to attend, though we hope you will join. See the Field Trip FAQ for answers to general questions. Contact leaders for more details about specific trips.

We follow all policies of field trip location property owners and co-sponsoring organizations. These may include ongoing public health measures. Some participants may choose to wear a face mask for health purposes. We support their right to do so.

We hope to see you out birding soon!
