Winter Waterfowl Series

Join Eileen Schwinn, past Audubon president and enthusiastic birder, for a great introduction to birding. The first part of the series will take place in the nature center and discuss birding as a hobby, recommended binoculars and books. We will also cover some great birding locations on Eastern Long Island. Part two will be field trips to observe and identify waterfowl on Old Ice Pond at Quogue Wildlife Refuge, as well as the pond and creek in East Quogue.
About Quogue Wildlife Refuge Nature Center
The Quogue Wildlife Refuge is a 305-acre expanse of protected land, with over seven miles of trails where you can explore a variety of habitats including Pine Barrens, bogs, wetlands, a field, and a tidal estuary. Our main trail is wheelchair and stroller friendly and all of the trails can be enjoyed in every season. The Refuge is a great place to cross-country ski and snowshoe. There is also a Distressed Wildlife Complex which houses animals that have been injured and would not be able to survive in the wild.
Our obligation is to serve as a responsible land steward of the Refuge property and its natural resources, while promoting, implementing and supporting environmental education. |
