Avian Adventures with Aaron | September 16th

Each year during the fall, millions of nearctic-neotropic migrant birds will make take an annual journey from their northern breeding grounds to more temperate climates south, from the southern US, through central America, and into South America as far as Patagonia. Come visit WCT’s premier wildlife refuge, Rushton Woods Preserve, as we witness the greatest migration period in the Philadelphia region. Dozens of warblers, vireos, and sparrow species will stopover in our beloved hedgerows for critical rest and recovery, providing birders with an incredible diversity of songbirds to learn and appreciate.
