Choose Your Own Audubon Adventure

• Bird Walk        

  •  Join us for a private morning bird walk through our sanctuary. The Bent's meadows, shrub-lands, and woodlands provide great habitat for migrating birds, such as Warblers, Vireos, Indigo Buntings, Thrushes, Orioles, and more. This walk will be customized to the participants in your party.

• Guided Hike 

  • Take a private hike with Bent of the River! Your personal guide will show you notable habitats and wildlife around the center trails. Nature is exciting and always changing, so you never know what we will find along the way! This program is ideal for people who want to enjoy beautiful scenery while hiking. We recommend this program for ages 6 and up, and people comfortable hiking in areas with a slight incline for a portion of the experience.

• Pomperaug River Exploration

  •  There are many fascinating creatures that live in and around the Pomperaug River! During this recreational program, an Audubon naturalist will share the human and natural history of the river, and teach you to catch animals such as crayfish, insect larvae, and small fish. The Bent will supply you with gear and materials to use during your experience (such as nets, containers, and field guides). Once the animals are caught, we will observe and identify the organisms and learn how they can help indicate the health of the river before we release them back to the wild.
