E-birding in the Alewife Reservation

Green Cambridge is hosting our first ever E-birding event in the Alewife!

Join Green Cambridge for a guided walk in the reservation using Cornell University's E-bird, this project lets birders from around the globe submit observations that help track migration and inform conservation efforts.
