Five Rivers Environmental Education Center in Delmar is our bird club’s home address, our monthly meeting site, and location for many of our field trips, including our longstanding Birds and Breakfast in May. More ebird checklists have been submitted from Five Rivers than from any other hotspot in the Capital Region. But how well to we really know it? What are some of its most common birds, and what are some of its rarities? What draws birders, photographers, naturalists and multiple generations to this 450-acre site at the edge of suburbia? From field to forest, ponds and flowing waters, Five Rivers' variety of habitats support an unusually wide variety of life, representing a microcosm of the natural riches of the Capital Region. Join us for this up-close look at a year's worth of nature’s beauty and diversity at this beloved integral part of the Capital Region!
