SCBWF Weekend (Trip I) – Sams House at Pine Island
January 21, 2023 @ 9:00 am - 10:30 am
**Space Coast Birding and Wildlife Festival Weekend**
A group of local trip leaders, tour guides, and industry vendors are planning the return of the SCBWF in 2024. As a ‘warm up’ to the festival’s return the foundational group is conducting a birding weekend to showcase the immense diversity of bird species found in our area. The weekend will include a series of field trips from 19-23 January. Space Coast Audubon is providing support through promotion, hosting, and field trip leader involvement.
**TRIP I: Sams House at Pine Island**
Trip Leader: Rob Lane (Naturalist, Sams House at Pine Island, and Space Coast Audubon Board Member)
Meet in front of the pioneer house. Recent sightings at this property include summer tanager, black-throated green warbler, and blue-gray gnatcatchers, and immature bald eagles.
Rob will lead participants around the nature trails and native plant gardens to observe birds perching, foraging and flying over. The route will depend on what is being seen.
Logistics: Restrooms and a filtered water refill station are available behind the pioneer house.
What to Bring: Water, snack, bug repellent, sunscreen, binoculars.
