Join NH Audubon for a birding outing along the trails at the John Brockway Nature Preserve! The Brockway Preserve houses forest and wetland habitat, and has great conditions for birds like Song Sparrows, Great Blue Herons, and Wood Ducks.

This is an informal birding outing that begins at the center parking lot and explores the trails with former NH Audubon biologist Mark Suomala and Newfound Center 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.

This is a free event. Binocular rental is provided. Please dress for the weather, with sturdy shoes. Expect to walk between 1-2 miles over mostly flat trials through wooded terrain. Trails may be soggy or muddy in the rainy season. Dogs are not allowed on this walk. We will meet in the preserve’s parking lot on Farrington Corner Road in Hopkinton. For detailed instructions on how to get to the preserve, search Brockway Pond on Google Maps, or visit here.
