Seacoast Chapter NHA Field Trip Report - Seabrook Town Forest & Wellfield

[Ashton Almeida]

Yesterday, I was joined by 19 others for a field trip through the Seabrook Town Forest & Wellfield. It was a beautiful, active walk with many species both heard and seen. Highlights included Nashville and Blackpoll Warblers, along with two Praying Mantises!

With a few beginner birders tagging along, it was a great opportunity for them to see and learn about the diversity of birds in the area.
