Shorebird Sit

Most of North America's shorebird species winter in South & Central America, heading north to breed in the high Arctic, while others spend the winter here in Connecticut. Early spring is when many of these species start their long-distance migrations, making it a great time of year to head to the coast. Join us as we look for many of our shorebird species at some of the best spots around southeastern Connecticut and learn how you can help these charismatic birds.

A bird sit involves little to no walking, instead focusing on a single location and letting the birds come to you. Exposure to wind, sun, and cold is possible depending on the weather. No restrooms on site.
