The longest running birding festival in the USA just keeps getting better. New Jersey Audubon’s Cape May Bird Observatory has its pulse on the fall migration and you are invited to be a part of it. Four official migratory counts take place during the fall: the Monarch Monitoring Project, the Avalon Seawatch, the Morning Flight Songbird Count, and of course the celebrated Cape May Hawkwatch. There is no better way to immerse yourself in the storied birding experience that is Cape May than attending this festival.
Registration of $65 per day or $175 for all three days includes an abundant selection of walks for all skill levels, and special photography walks, as well as insightful and entertaining indoor programs. Want to work on your hawk ID? Registration includes Hawk ID Master Classes every afternoon at The Bleachers on Stevens Street overlooking the Rea Farm fields. Same for sea birds at the bleachers on the beach in Avalon. There are boat trips and special trolley trips for additional costs that are only open to festival registrants.
