Voices of the Forest: A Spring Bird Walk

Great Mountain Forest is pleased to cohost a special spring bird walk on May 30 in partnership with the Connecticut Land Conservation Council and the Norfolk Land Trust. This is one of the best times of year for birding, many species are establishing territories, singing frequently, and beginning to nest, which makes them easier to see and hear.

We’ll begin at Tamarack Pond, where we can observe birds that thrive in wetland and pond-edge habitats. From there, we’ll continue into the forest to look and listen for a variety of woodland birds.

This walk offers a wonderful opportunity to experience the diversity of birdlife across different habitats and to enjoy the sights and sounds of late spring in the forest.

What to bring:

• Binoculars (if you have them)
• Water and snacks
• Sturdy walking shoes
• Dress for the weather
• Bug/tick protection

We hope you’ll join us for this engaging and seasonal exploration of birds and their habitats.
