We are still deciding whether or when to go to Cape May or Garrett Mountain or Central Park to see the spring bird migration. In the meantime, we are catching a few in our backyward.

  1. Quick question: when does the Spring Migration peak? I was thinking about checking out Cape May, but thought I'd already missed it.

  2. Cape May is nice much of the year. The web site Cape May Calendar has a calendar of activities.  The second week of May is around the peak time, but it does depend on weather, winds, fronts, etc. You won't be disappointed if you are a week or two early or late.
