On May 12th, DC Audubon will take its annual spring field trip to Bombay Hook NWR in Delaware. This spectacular refuge contains mix of habitats: salt marshes, ponds, forests, and open fields. Bombay Hook is one of the best places in the Mid-Atlantic region to observe migrating shorebirds, including avocets, stilts, and dowitchers. Because of the habitat diversity, participants can expect to see many other land and water birds as well. Past DC Audubon field trips to Bombay Hook have sighted close to 90 species in one day. If time permits, we may visit another site along the Delaware coast after touring Bombay Hook.
