CT Audubon Birdcraft Museum

Place is quite unknown ... even by locals. Small but has enough going on in the scenery to make it a nice quick tour. The main building is still closed... been closed a while now. Land very well maintained and it is a good place for a nature-watching stroll

It's awesome place. Meanwhile the museum is under renovation but trails are open. It's kingdom of the birds in the middle of rush downtown Fairfield Life and busy roads. But it's really great and can visit for free. But donation is appreciated. I will definitely recommend for everybody specially for family with small children.

Naturalist's Paradise. From birds to plants to wildflowers,the wonders never cease. America's first Bird Watching Preserve. Can never get enough of this site. In middle of downtown,one can see all the Wildlife one is willing to sit and wait for. Well worth a visit,6 acres of all your Field Guides come to life.

This looked to be a very neat stop on our drive through the coast of CT. An inner city bird sanctuary along the coast and on the Long Island sound. Their hours posted here on Google Maps are not current though. We arrived Saturday well before their posted closing time of 4 p.m. and they were locked up tight, both the museum and the walking trails. I strongly recommend calling ahead to be sure it's open. I am from a rural area where the idea of a bird sanctuary is something very different from what they have to work with ... so I was very interested in seeing how it was done in an area sandwiched between highways and a residential area. From the parking area, it looks very well done and they must provide a very needed area for area and migratory birds to take a break.
