New Year’s Day Bird and Birder Show

Please join birding enthusiasts Thursday, January 1, 2026, at Chickahominy Riverfront Park for the “New Year’s Day Bird and Birder Show.” The 2026 gathering will be our club’s 20th “almost-annual” event.

We’ll convene at the shelter next to the park’s swimming pool from 1:00 – 3:00 p.m. Relax and visit with new and familiar friends at the picnic tables or venture out around the park to find our wintering birds. The park provides wonderful access to check the river (from the fishing pier!) and Gordon Creek (from the boat launch) for our wintering waterfowl, plus the woodland edges will yield our winter residents.

The address for Chickahominy Riverfront Park is 1350 John Tyler Highway, Williamsburg, VA 23185. You can find directions on the park’s website by clicking this link.

Bring visiting family, friends, and children; come early, stay late, or just drop by. Remember, every bird is a year bird on New Year’s Day! I look forward to wel-
coming you to celebrate the start of 2026.

Free and open to the public.
