Feather Questers

Welcome to the NEW teen/youth birding site with a new name. We have provided oppotunities for teen birders throughout the region for many years, and with the launching of our new name, Feather Questers, and our new member bird checklist, we hope to inspire a new generation of young birders.

Whether a pre-teen, teen, or adult... whether a first time birder or an experienced veteran... there are opportunities for you to get involved in our youth birding.

For Youths: Please join our google group and listserve, and contact us to get involved with an upcoming events. All curent programs are listed in the gray column on the right of this page. You can also join us as a member.

For Adults: You can get involved by supporting your kids with birding by providing them rides to events, and allowing them the opportunity to develop their interest. Contact us for more ways to get involved.

Great Backyard Bird Count

This nation-wide citizen science project is another way for us to get out and bird, and at the same time, gather galuable information for scientists.We will keep our destination flexible (based on rarities that may be around) but save the date for another fun day of birding.

Winter Ducks
Sunday, March 25, 8:30 a.m. - 12:30 p.m.
As winter slowly transitions into spring, we will venture to Lake Champlain in search of wintering and migrating ducks. Thousands of geese and over 15 species of ducks may be present, and we'll search for the more elusive individuals such as Tufted Duck and Barrow's Goldeneye.
