Montgomery Bird Club
Montgomery Bird Club members range from new birders to serious bird enthusiasts. People of all ages and experience levels are welcome to join. If you are new to birding, our members will be happy to help you get started and pass along their knowledge through a variety of interesting field trips. All of our field trips and monthly Club meetings can be found in the event calendar.
Meetings
Our meetings are held at the Potomac Presbyterian Church, 10301 River Road. Doors open at 7:00 p.m., refreshments 7:30 and meeting starts at 8:00 p.m. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, our latest meetings have been virtual. At this point (early June 2020) we do not know when in-person meetings will resume. Welcome to our site and happy birding.
