Autumn South Coast Stroll: Old Harbor
Our South Coast Strolls will be a series of walks at a different coastal location in October and November. These walks will identify areas around Westport and the features that entice biodiversity in each habitat. Although we will endeavor to keep to the most accessible trails at each walk, we will also use coastal access trails to reach the shore and see what shorebirds, sea ducks, and other species might be stopping over in our South Coast habitats.
The second in our series of walks exploring the birds of the South Coast takes us back to Old Harbor Wildlife Refuge. Old Harbor provides both upland and wetland habitats, great opportunities for birders and wildlife enthusiasts.
We recommend bringing a comfortable pair of shoes that can handle shoreline walking, as well as optics such as a camera and/or binocular, and a water bottle. All levels of birders are welcome. We will meet at the parking area on Old Harbor Road–please park along the southside of the entrance if the lot is full.
