Brigantine National Wildlife Refuge Bird Van Trip

Description

Ages: Adult

Instructor: Tom Sheppard, Chief Park Naturalist and Patrick Eckard

The Brigantine National Wildlife Refuge is famous throughout the US as considered one of the best birding spots in New Jersey. “Brig” embraces more than 20,000 acres of coastal salt marsh, islands, open bays and channels. Fresh-brackish impoundments created by diking off the salt marsh are the main attraction for birds. We will spend the entire trip within the main area searching for all the winter birds and waterfowl we can find.
