Free Barnegat Light Trip This Monday

Winter at Barnegat Light is the time to look for such specialties as Common Eider, Harlequin Duck, Long-tailed Duck, Great Cormorant, Northern Gannet, Purple Sandpiper, Snow Bunting, and Ipswich Sparrow; there’s also a chance at a rare gull or a Snowy Owl.

Meet at the lighthouse at 9:00 am on Monday, January 23; we’ll be finished by 2:00 pm. Carpoolers can meet at 6:30 am in the Pet Smart parking lot at the intersection of Highway 23 and Willowbrook Boulevard. New birders, casual birders, out-of-towners are especially welcome!

Dress for the cold, and bring notebook, pencil, and lunch.
