Between 10 AM and Noon on Saturday February 21, 2015, Mascoma Chapter
of New Hampshire Audubon plans to hold its annual eagle watch at
Wilder Dam. This event is free and open to the public. Participants
can come and go as they wish at any time. Bring binoculars and scopes
if available. This field trip involves relatively little walking so
participants may wish to dress especially warmly. Eagles might not be
continually in sight, so patience may be needed. In addition to
watching for Bald Eagles, we'll be on the lookout for other birds
which often include Common Mergansers.
Road instructions: From Exit 12 off I-91 in Wilder, Vt, turn east
toward Route 5. On reaching Route 5 (Hartford Avenue), turn left.
Continue (northward) to the fourth right, turning onto Depot Street.
Take the next left (onto Norwich Ave.), and then an immediate right
turn going over the bridge to Passumpsic Avenue. At Passumpsic Avenue
turn right toward Wilder Dam. Park in the first parking lot on the
right (entrance at a break in the guard rail) and then walk downhill
to the viewing area around the parking lot nearest the dam.
(Alternatively, drive directly to that last lot where you might park
if plowed out and if any parking spaces remain. In recent days, most
of the last lot has been filled with large snow piles from plowing,
leaving little space for parking vehicles.)
