Travel with CAS to one of the top birding locations in all of North America: Cape May, New Jersey, located in the very heart of the Atlantic Flyway. This trip is sure to appeal to both avid & novice birders alike, as it is timed to catch all the birding action of the fall migration along the Eastern Seaboard.
Cape May’s location makes it a special birding hot spot. It is positioned on the southernmost tip of New Jersey, and is situated exactly where birds that are migrating from points north “drop out” before crossing the Delaware Bay. Warblers, raptors, and waterfowl all abound here during the month of September, as do a myriad of shorebirds.
As you can see from the itinerary, the trip will cover sites that are well known for quality birding. There also will be a group “Pizza in the Park” dinner the first night where we can get to know each other better and get updates on the trip. Participants should find and make their own lodging arrangements. The are many options in and around Cape May to fit a range of budgets.
