If you have ever wondered, "What is that bird?" this is your chance to find out. Join Environmental Protection in the Caribbean (EPIC) St. Maarten for an easy walk to explore the birds and other wildlife around Le Galion. Many species spend their winters on the island, resulting in impressive flocks of waterbirds at local ponds. The birds will soon begin departing for their breeding grounds in The United States and Canada. This is a great opportunity to see and learn about the true snowbirds before they head north while enjoying the beauty of the Reserve Naturelle St. Martin.
EPIC's free public Bird Walk will take place at Salines d'Orient by Le Galion on Saturday February 18th, starting at 9:00 a.m. Meet near the Butterfly Farm. Spotting scopes, binoculars, and bird identification guides will be available, but bring your own if you have them. For questions contact Ronald Pieters at 520-8538.
