Cape May Birding
Where else can you enjoy a lovely
seashore getaway and get to see some of
the world’s most beautiful
birds? Cape May New Jersey is a scenic
little seashore town located on the
Atlantic Ocean and the Delaware Bay, and
it is a place that many migrant birds
pass through and over throughout the
year. As one of America’s finest birding
spots and the home of the Cape May Bird
Observatory, Cape May Birding is one of
the most popular activities visitors
enjoy while on a Cape May Vacation. In
fact, Cape May Birding is so popular
that Cape May hosts the World Series of
Birding every year here. Learn more

The World Series of Birding is perhaps
the most famous birding
competition. Participants from around
the country and several other countries
come to Cape May New Jersey to compete
to identify the greatest number of bird
species in a 24 hour period. Taking
place annually in mid-May, the event
raises money for bird conservation
organizations and is sponsored by the
New Jersey Audubon Society. This event
is one of the biggest events in Cape May
and always brings many bird enthusiasts
to the area.
Another popular event for Cape May
Birding is the birding tours and Cape
May Birding workshops offered during the
Cape May Autumn Weekend; Cape May’s
autumn weekend festival has occurred
annually for more than 60 years and is
typically held the last weekend in
October. During this time, you can enjoy
indoor and outdoor workshops with
experienced birders, browse new scopes
and optical tools at the Optics
Showroom, and enjoy a Cape May Birding
tour aboard the
Cape May Lewes Ferry. In
addition to this event, Cape May Birding
trips are a regular attraction in the area. Captain David Githens
offers Cape May Birding Tours aboard his
roomy pontoon boat. These trips offer
visitors a rare glimpse at shore birds
that normally try to shy away and hide.
On these Cape May Birding trips you may
see neat rails, nesting terns, talkative
gulls, and even an osprey or two.
Reservations are required and trips are
offered throughout the summer.
