A Birding Year at Arcadia: Winter

Wednesday, December 16, 2026 · 9:30 AM – 11:00 AM

Arcadia Wildlife Sanctuary — 127 Combs Rd., Easthampton, MA

Bird our favorite winter phenomena over three months with skilled naturalists as your guide. December opens with winter birds and feeders, exploring which species stay through the cold and how to attract them to your yard. January turns to owls, with an evening session that ventures into the winter night. February closes with winter raptors, scanning the fields for large, hungry hunters. Each session begins inside before heading out for about 90 minutes of active birding on Arcadia's trails. Strengthen your birding skills, meet other birders, and learn more about bird conservation work happening at the sanctuary and beyond. Sessions typically begin inside with a short introduction before heading out for about 90 minutes of birding on sanctuary trails. Please dress for the weather; sessions run rain or shine. Bring binoculars if you have them.
