LONGTAILS IN LOVE
Sat, Feb 13, 2010, 10:00 AM - 4:00 PM

Long-tailed Ducks and many other species of waterfowl frequent the ocean, bays, inlets, and ponds along the South Jersey coast. The Long-tailed Ducks court during the weeks surrounding Valentine’s Day, with the males yodeling melodically to their mates. Join CMBO associate naturalists on a search for waterfowl (amorous and otherwise) from Avalon to Cape May harbor. Sounds like a great Valentine’s date!


Preregistration required.  Cost: $20 members / $30 nonmembers

Call CMBO at (609) 861-0700 x11 to register.

BIRD WALK FOR BEGINNERS (and anyone else in town!)
Mon, Feb 15, 2010, 10:00 AM - 12:00 PM

Cape May is a great place to spend the weekend any time of year, and many people take advantage of three-day weekends (like President's Weekend) to come to town.  Finish out the long weekend with CMBO’s expert naturalists by learning what birds linger in the waters and woods here at the Birding Capital of North America. This trip meets at Cape May Point State Park.

 

No preregistration or birding experience necessary, and free loaner binoculars will be available.

Cost:  $6 members / $10 nonmembers

BRIGANTINE AND BARNEGAT LIGHT
Sat, Feb 27, 2010, 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM
Ducks are massing, Northern Harriers and, for those willing stay a little later, perhaps Short-eared Owls will be hunting. Harlequin Ducks and (hopefully) eiders are still at Barnegat. Eagles and Rough-legged Hawks are also possible on this trip.  Trip meets in Barnegat and finishes near Brigantine.

Preregistration required.  Cost:  $25 members / $35 nonmembers
Call CMBO at (609) 861-0700 x11 to register.
