Wednesday Morning Bird Walk

On January 29th we are doing something a little different: heading to sea on the Block Island Ferry! Some of the great birds being seen recently on the ferry are Thick-billed Murre, Dovekie, Black Gillemont and Razorbills. We will leave from Galilee in Narragansett on the 11:30 am ferry and return on the 1:30 pm ferry. Pack a lunch, wear lots of warm clothing and join us! The ferry tickets are $23.75, or 22.75 for seniors. Please give yourself enough time to park and purchase tickets.
