Carolina Bird Club Meetings

The Carolina Bird Club holds general meetings three times a year, in mid-winter, spring, and fall. The winter meeting is usually held in late January or early February, the spring meeting in late April or early May, and the fall meeting in late September or early October. The main focus of the meetings is birding, thus the meeting location is rotated among good birding locations in the three regions of the club: eastern and western North Carolina, and South Carolina. Meetings also feature evening programs and social hours on Friday and Saturday.

Everyone interested in birds of the Carolinas is welcome at our general meetings, whether members of the Carolina Bird Club or not; however the meeting registration fee for non-members is slightly higher. Specifics about upcoming meetings are provided via the Newsletter sent to all members, and are also provided on this web site.
