Windsor County 2013 Birding Quest is to hold a bird walk in Windsor,
VT on Saturday November 16, 2013. Co-leaders are to include Chris
Rimmer, George Clark, and possibly others. We'll start at Lake
Runnemede at 8:00 AM and possibly later continue to another location
in the town of Windsor. This walk is free and open to the public.
Bring binoculars and scopes if available. Dress warmly. Participants
should be prepared to walk as much as 2 miles over uneven and possibly
damp terrain. We'll be looking for migrating waterbirds as well
lingering migrant and wintering landbirds. (If there should
unfortunately be continuous heavy precipitation or hazardous driving
conditions, this bird walk will not be held.)
Road and carpooling instructions: From Exit 9 off I-91, turn south on
Route 5 towards Windsor. After going about 3 miles southward on Route
5, look for the Back Forty guns and ammo store on the left, with a
Price Chopper supermarket just beyond, also on the left. This walk
will begin at 8:00 AM by the entrance to a long driveway directly
across Route 5 from the Back Forty store. Please do not drive into
that driveway, vehicular use of which is reserved for local residents.
Parking is available along Route 5, but be sure your site is legal.
Carpoolers from towns around the Hanover/Norwich area are to leave
from the River Road commuter parking lot in Norwich by the Ledyard
Bridge at 7:30 AM that morning. We'll aim to return to Norwich by
11:30 AM.
