Field Trip to Ft. Pickens
It’s that time of year again, Fall Migration at Ft. Pickens!
We will meet and begin our walk at Battery Langdon (please see link of exact location in the Parking section), walking around to look for migrating birds in the oak trees.
From there, we will head to Battery Worth and check out the parking lot, which often has many species.
The birds that day will determine just where we go and for how long we remain at each location, but before we
stop for the day, we will have given finding birds our best shot!
Extensive walking of 2-4 miles on relatively flat ground will be required, however we will rest from time to time.
Please bring water, snacks, hat, sunscreen, and binoculars. After the event, the leaders will remain at Ft. Pickens for a long lunch break. You are invited to pack a picnic and join them.
The field trip is FREE, however there is a cost to enter Ft. Pickens. If you have a pass, be sure to bring it!
You are required to register for each of our events. Registration Form
Please do not wear scented cologne, perfumes or aftershave on field trips. It distracts from the experience in nature, and some participants are highly sensitive to it.
