Join us for a birding outing at Horseshoe Pond! This birding hotspot is a prime example of an oxbow lake, and is particularly notable for its waterfowl sightings. Species seen at this spot in the past in late March include Canada Geese, Ring-necked Ducks, and Hooded Mergansers.

This is an informal birding outing led by former NH Audubon biologist Mark Suomala and Newfound Center & Public Programs Coordinator Devin Guilfoyle. All ages and skill levels of birders are welcome. If you are new to birding, come and learn the basics! If you are an avid birder, come to learn new techniques, network with other birders, or share your expertise with the group. We will meet at the parking lot on the corner of Commercial St. and Delta Drive. Devin Guilfoyle will email more details before the event.

This is a free event with binocular rentals available. Please dress for the weather, with sturdy shoes. Expect to walk between 1-2 miles over mostly flat, but uneven trails through grassy and wooded terrain. Trails may be snowy, soggy, or muddy. Dogs are not allowed on this walk. Registrants will receive an email with detailed parking instructions the day before the walk.

By attending this event, you and anyone you register on behalf of agree to NH Audubon’s Outdoor Education Program Liability Release & Agreement Waiver.
