Update from Jim Rapp and the DBW crew (posted at 6:30 am on Sept. 30): During Sept. 25-27, we helped host the 78th Annual Convention of the Maryland Ornithological Society (MOS) in Salisbury, MD. Learn more about the convention at www.MOSconvention.org.

That same weekend, a nor’easter brought rain, gusting winds and coastal flooding to much of Delmarva. We are pleased to report that our 200+ birders enjoyed field trips on Friday, Saturday and Sunday thanks to our 50+ Field Trip Leaders, which included Russ Kovach, Anthony Gonzon, Chris Bennett, Scott Housten, and other DBW Guides. We tallied 164 species and zero serious incidents from the storm.

Now that the MOS Convention has wrapped up, we are excited to get back to fun fall birding with you! Click the links below to register for your trips.
