SANDY HOOK GATEWAY NATIONAL RECREATION AREA — Spend an evening on Sandy Hook with the Monmouth County Audubon Society.
Join the Monmouth County Audubon Society for a summer evening bird walk to look for nesters and shorebirds on Sandy Hook. The event will take place on Thursday, June 13, starting at 6:00 p.m. The trip will be led by members of the Monmouth County Audubon Society who are familiar with Sandy Hook and its birds.
We never know what we will discover on these summer walks – herons, shorebirds, Ospreys and gulls are all regulars.
Anyone interested in participating in the event can meet at 6:00 p.m. in the parking lot of the old Sandy Hook Visitor’s Center (across from Spermaceti Cove), just north of Lot E (1.8 miles from the park entrance). The trip is open to both members and non-members of the Monmouth County Audubon Society, and participation is free. Advance registration is not required.
Participants should bring binoculars and field guides and should dress appropriately for the weather, including clothing suitable for rain if the forecast is questionable. Insect repellent also is recommended. The walk will take place light rain or shine. Pets are not permitted.
