Bird Walks

The WCLT offers free spring Sunday-morning bird walks beginning the 1st Sunday in May. Beginners and novices are welcome. We explore areas not only in Wellesley but also in nearby towns. It is not uncommon to observe 30 species in their top breeding finery and vocalization! The leader will direct the group to the most promising birding site of the day. Binoculars, guide books, and waterproof footwear are advisable. Except for our Mother’s Day trip to Mt. Auburn Cemetery, which meets at 7 a.m., all bird walks commence at 8 a.m. Sundays.

For 2023, we will be limiting participants to no more than 20 for each walk, with priority given to WCLT Annual Members and Lifetime Members. (To check the status of your Membership, please email info@wellesleylandtrust.org).

Please watch your email (send email to address above if you are not on our list) and follow on Facebook for specific sign up information.
