Register: Coastal Center Anniversary Walk 10.23.25

October 23, 2025
8:30 a.m. – 10:30 a.m.
Coastal Center at Milford Point, 1 Milford Point Rd
Ages 8 and up

We’ve timed this walk for a low tide, to leave plenty of room for participants to view shorebirds with minimal disturbance to them. The Milford Point sandbar is just what it sounds like—a wide spit of sand, shadeless and fully exposed to Long Island Sound and the elements—so check the weather forecast and dress appropriately. We’ll see hundreds if not thousands of shorebirds, such as Semipalmated Sandpiper, Least Sandpiper, Ruddy Turnstone, Black-bellied Plover, and Semipalmated Plover. We’ll also see protected species like American Oystercatchers. Children 8 years old and older are welcome with an adult. Bring binoculars; walk leaders will make sure you see plenty of birds! Beginner birders are welcome.
