January 2022 Providence Birding Adventures 

Join naturalists from the Audubon Society of Rhode Island and the Providence Parks Urban Wildlife Refuge Partnership for a free bird walk in Providence on Monday, February 7, at 10:00-11:00 am.

We will send details on the meeting spot once you register for the walk. Registration is limited to 15 attendees so please register early so as not to miss out! 

To participate, you must wear a mask for the entirety of the program, and be aware of how we are spread out when looking for birds; we need to follow physical distancing guidelines. Our bird walk locations and routes have been carefully considered and chosen to allow the maximum amount of space while still enjoying the variety of birds in this lovely spot in Providence. 

We encourage you to bring your own equipment - binoculars and field guides – so that we can limit sharing among participants. We will bring extra hand sanitizer for you to use if needed. Dress for the weather and wear sturdy walking shoes. 

We acknowledge that the lands we will explore are the traditional, ancestral and contemporary lands of the Narragansett, Wôpanâak, Pokanoket and Nahaganset nations. We thank these indigenous nations for being the first to steward these lands and waters, and for continuing that stewardship in the present and into the future. 

These birding adventures began in 2018 as part of the Urban Bird Treaty Program, and in 2019, Providence was designated a Bird Treaty City. To read more about the Urban Bird Treaty and other participating cities, visit https://www.fws.gov/migratorybirds/pdf/grants/UrbanBirdTreatyfactsheet.pdf
