Schoppee Marsh Birding Trip
May 18, 2023 @ 7:00 am - 10:00 am
Join Downeast Coastal Conservancy’s (DCC) Colin Brown and Downeast Salmon Federation’s (DSF) Kirstin Underwood for a birding walk along Schoppee Marsh in Machias. The walk will be on even, level terrain along the Downeast Sunrise Trail, as we go in search of marsh-loving species, shorebirds, and other springtime nesters. This walk will help DCC and DSF establish crucial baseline data for upcoming salt marsh restoration projects, and we are looking for citizen-science volunteers. Participants should meet at the parking area across from Pat’s Pizza at 7 am.
Interested in helping this exciting citizen science project, but can’t make it on the 18th? Contact Kirstin at kirstin@mainesalmonrivers.org for additional dates where you can contribute your bird count data toward this exciting project!
