Do you want to learn about birds? Or want to meet other kids that love birds? If so, this is your trip! Join Southern Maryland Youth Birders at a great location. Newtowne Neck is a 776-acre park of shoreline, woodlands, wetlands, and agricultural fields—a wide variety of birding habitats. On this trip last year, young birders found 52 species, including Yellow-throated Warblers!
From Rte. 5 north of Leonardtown, turn on Rte. 243 (Newtowne Neck Road), continue for 4.5 miles to parking lot on left just beyond the graveyard and before St. Francis Xavier’s Church. RSVP required to Ben at 443-771-6636 (text preferred) or ben.springer@comcast.net.
