Join your guides Jared Parks and Frank Deuter of the Lower Shore Land Trust and Jim Rapp of Delmarva Birding as you explore Worcester County’s newest birding hotspot, the Bay Club just west of Berlin, MD. This former golf course is currently being restored to open meadows, wetlands and forest that are already teeming with songbirds! Management of the property for public access is just beginning, so the trail network is not fully installed. However, MD DNR is in the process of creating an extensive trail network from the cart paths of the old golf course to provide access for birders seeking warblers, sparrows, vireos and more.

Following their tour at the Bay Club, you’ll drive 2.5 miles to Berlin to scope the ponds at Heron Park for later wintering waterfowl and early arriving spring songbirds and wading birds.
