Winter Delmarva Dogfish BirdINNg Weekend

The Winter Delmarva Dogfish BirdINNg Weekend will be held January 29 – 31, 2021. This is our 6th year enjoying great looks at the waterfowl, seabirds, shorebirds, raptors — and seals! — that are on full display in the mid-Atlantic during the winter months. 116 species were tallied during the 2020 event, including Great Cormorant, Purple Sandpiper, Harlequin Duck, Razorbill, Snow Bunting, “trifectas” for nuthatches and scoters, 30 species of waterfowl, as well as Harbor and Gray Seals.

In 2021, we are super excited to partner with our friends at the Dogfish INN! Located in historic downtown Lewes alongside the canal and a short walk from Fisherman’s Wharf, the Dogfish Inn is the perfect basecamp for exploring all that coastal Delaware has to offer. Holding true to Dogfish Head fashion, you’ll find an offbeat approach to style, quality, and craft throughout each of their 16 rooms and their Super SWEET rental cottage located just up the street. We’ve got special packages for DBW guests, so make the Dogfish INN your basecamp for winter birding!

Field trips include forays into Bombay Hook National Wildlife Refuge, Prime Hook National Wildlife Refuge, Cape Henlopen State Park, the inlets at Indian River and Ocean City, Heron Park in Berlin, Newport Farms, and small group “Scoters, Seals & Slightly Mightys” boat tours in Lewes.   https://delmarvabirding.com/winter-dogfish-dbw-jan-29-31/
