| ||||||||||||
Cape Ann is known to birdwatchers worldwide for its exciting concentrations of winter seabirds.Loons, grebes, gannets, sea ducks, alcids, and gulls gather in impressive concentrations and variety, and a careful exploration of the area's gorgeous coastal geography is quite likely to turn up such winter bird specialties as our logo bird, the Harlequin Duck. Working with the Mass Audubon Society, the Cape Ann Chamber of Commerce is planning a weekend filled with opportunity for bird lovers of all skill levels to join expert guides on a tour of Cape Ann's birding hot spots- including a sea trip on the 7 Seas Whale Watch boat the Privateer IV! Hope to see you there! | |||||||||||||

different species of birds were observed during the 2010. For
