Mid-Coast Audubon is set to 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. The eBird database has records for 234 species at this Waldo County birding hotspot.
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.
The group will meet at 8 a.m. at the kiosk at the Sears Island causeway parking area. For more information, visit midcoast.maineaudubon.org.
