Bird Walk in Norwich -- Start the New Year on the right foot with a  
bird walk on New Year's Day, Friday January 1, 2010.

Meet at 9:00 AM outside Dan & Whit's general store on Main Street in  
downtown Norwich, Vermont. Chris Rimmer, a Norwich resident and  
Director of the Vermont Center for EcoStudies, will lead a leisurely  
birding trip to inaugurate the Norwich 2010 Birding Quest project. Be  
prepared to walk on mostly level ground for about an hour, from Dan &  
Whit's to Hopson Road and up to Hillside Cemetery, then back along  
Pine Tree Road to Hopson. Dress warmly and bring binoculars if  
available. Children are welcome with an accompanying adult.  This walk  
is free and open to the public. The walk will take place regardless of  
weather conditions, but be aware that poor weather will reduce chances  
of seeing many birds.

The goal of the Norwich 2010 Birding Quest <http://www.vtecostudies.org/quest/ 
 > is to find and identify as many kinds of birds as possible within  
Norwich during calendar year 2010. Join the fun and learn more about  
the Quest on this invigorating and informative walk.  This walk will  
be one part of the annual Hanover-Norwich Christmas Bird Count <http://tinyurl.com/ydf2e5o 
 >, and counts of numbers will be made for each species identified.
