Grab your favorite adventure buddy and dive into the beauty of winter birdwatching at DeKorte Park in Lyndhurst, NJ. This is no ordinary bird walk; it’s Weird Duck Season! Expect to encounter a delightful variety of winter waterfowl, wading birds, and songbirds, all while soaking up the serene atmosphere of the park.
The journey begins at Richard W. DeKorte Park, where you’ll embark on a two-mile trek along the boardwalk and through dirt paths. Dress warmly, wear sturdy closed-toe shoes, and bring along your essentials—water, snacks, and layers to keep cozy. If you have binoculars, don’t forget to pack them. For those who need them, five pairs of 8×25 birding binoculars will be available to borrow, along with a spotting scope to enhance your viewing experience.
This outing is designed to be enjoyed rain or shine, though in the case of extreme weather, a rescheduling will occur to ensure a better experience. As you birdwatch, keep in mind that the sounds of the New Jersey Turnpike and nearby transit trains will accompany you, adding an urban twist to your nature exploration. Let’s get birdy!
This bird walk is a wonderful opportunity to connect with nature while enjoying the unique winter wildlife of New Jersey. Engaging with the local environment fosters a deeper appreciation for the seasonal changes and the diverse bird species that call this area home. Join fellow nature lovers in celebrating the beauty of the outdoors in Bergen County.
