Birding at Cypress Point Park

March 5, 2023 @ 7:30 am - 9:30 am

Free

Cypress Point Park is a neighborhood park whose famous winter residents are the Brown Boobies that roost on the offshore signs. It has a beach to study shorebirds at low tide and a grassy park for woodland birds.  A bathroom is available at the parking lot.  Paths and the beach are level; it would be best to wear water shoes for wading if necessary.  Take Cypress Street west all the way to the end, then turn left and drive south pass the office buildings until you reach the entrance; you’ll have to turn right and drive west to reach the parking lot where we’ll meet.  After the beach birding, you can walk the park, or drive to nearby Ben T. Davis Beach to look for more ducks and shorebirds.

Pre-registration is required.  Contact trip leader Lilian Saul at:  lily.saul@tampaaudubon.org to join.
