The Spring and Fall are important times for birdwatchers, as new species pass through on their never-ending journey around the world. Regardless of whether you’re an experienced birder with a storied past and shelves of journals filled cover-to-cover with your accomplishments, or if you’re new to the world of ornithology and just want to enjoy the majesty of nature and rare birds, Block Island is here for you.
As another wave of migration is underway, here are just a few of the beautiful birds you should be on the look for.
