Cape May Warbler by Declan O’Neil

Experience Cape May on this brand new revival of a traditional DOS trip!

Known as “the birding Mecca,” Cape May, New Jersey has a legendary status among birders for good reason! Its location at the tip of a narrow peninsula funnels in migrating birds and provides a birding experience unlike any other. Join us for this special two-day trip targeting migrant warblers, vireos, flycatchers, raptors, and whatever else we can get our binoculars on!

We will begin Friday evening with a sunset stroll around South Cape May Meadows preserve followed by a group dinner and pick up again bright and early Saturday morning to see migration in action, visiting Higbee Beach WMA, the Northwood Center of Cape May Bird Observatory, and Cape May Point State Park, finishing up on the iconic Hawk Watch Platform. 

Please note that participants are responsible for their own overnight accommodations.

Space is limited to 12 participants, so sign up soon via the registration form below. One form registers one participant, so each participant must fill out their own form. When the trip is full, the form will no longer be displayed.
