SEARS ISLAND — Mid-Coast Audubon will lead a birding field trip to Sears Island, in Searsport, on Saturday, May 11. During spring migration, many songbird species rest and feed on Sears Island during their long northbound trip.

“Warblers galore!” said Mid-Coast Audubon, in a news release. “eBird has records for 234 species at this Waldo County birding hotspot.”

The site is easy to navigate as the main trail is paved.

The group will meet at 8 a.m., at the kiosk at the Sears Island causeway parking area. For more information, visit https://midcoast.maineaudubon.org/event/sears-island/.

Birders of all ages and skill levels are welcome. Attendees do not need to be an Audubon member or have advanced birding skills to join in. 

Mid-Coast Audubon’s mission is to promote long-term, responsible use of natural resources through informed membership, education and community awareness. Additional programs and field trips are listed at https://midcoast.maineaudubon.org/events/.
