Winter cold keeping you indoors? Venture out to the library to hear Ian Ives, Director of Mass Audubon’s Long Pasture Wildlife Sanctuary, talk about winter birds of Cape Cod. Cape Cod is renowned worldwide for the abundance of birds during the fall season, but many people don’t realize the birding opportunities during winter months. Vast flocks of winter robins, several species of hawks and owls, and the occasional appearance of winter vagrants make for plentiful birding opportunities. Prepare to do your own bird investigation during the next break in the weather! You’ll also learn about the many challenges that birds face in the wintertime. Discover the many amazing survival adaptations that they employ to stay warm, find food, and make it through to spring.
