Local Day & Overnight Field Trips

Scheduled Local Tours General Information

(Florida Only)

Please join Archaeopteryx Birding and Nature Tours this January for a field trip to the TM Goodwin Waterfowl Management Area in Fellsmere. For those that have not been out to this property yet, it’s certainly worth a visit. This area is home to several species of ducks, grebes, Belted Kingfishers, Roseate Spoonbills, shorebirds, wading birds, Purple Gallinule, and night herons. The area provides some fantastic photography opportunities if the birds are close to the dirt roads. The area is also adjacent to the St. Sebastian River State Park where Red-cockaded Woodpeckers can be found, as well as the Stick Marsh where we may see American Avocet or Crested Caracara.
Carpool options are available from south Lake county if interested. Binoculars, camera, a packed lunch, and warm clothes are recommended. Bring a spotting scope if you have one. Hope to see you there!
cost: $40
