Birding Cape Cod Canal

The Cape Cod Canal is a dynamic and busy system. In the winter, thousands of sea ducks, loons and grebes concentrate in the sheltered waters. Join a Wellfleet Bay Naturalist in exploring the many birding “hotspots” along the canal. Targets include King Eiders, Alcids, Peregrine Falcons and possible wintering songbirds.

Van transportation provided.
