Shorebirds on the Delaware Bay In-Person
For adults and teens. Registration not required.
Each spring hundreds of thousands of shorebirds stop in Delaware Bay to refuel for their long migration north. What are these birds? Where are they coming from and where are they going? How do horseshoe crabs fuel their migration? Naturalist and photographer Doug Wechsler will answer these questions in an enlightening presentation.
