About The Beanery (Rea Farm)
The Rea Farm (better known locally as “The Beanery”) is one of the premier sites for observing migrating birds in Cape May, which is high praise in a region abundant with migration hotspots. The site, which used to be a working lima bean farm, includes three connected fields surrounded by wet woods, and bordered with tractor paths. A small willow-lined pond is located at the east side of the property, and a defunct railroad track intersects the fields and swampy woods. The Beanery is centrally located on Cape Island, and is sheltered by surrounding belts of tall trees. As a result, it is often the warmest spot on Cape Island, causing migrants to linger along its sun-warmed hedgerows. From The Beanery (New Jersey Audubon web page
