The next bird walk arranged by the Mascoma Chapter of New Hampshire  
Audubon is to be held from 7:00 to 10:00 AM on Saturday August 18,  
2012. Participants are to meet for carpooling at 7:00 AM in the  
commuter parking lot by the Ledyard Bridge; the entrance to that lot  
is off River Road in Norwich. This bird walk is free and open to the  
public. Waterproof foot gear is recommended for possible shallow  
water. Bring binoculars and scopes if available.

Coverage in this bird walk, to be led by George Clark, is to be  
limited to the towns of Norwich and possibly Hartford, both in  
Vermont. We'll be particularly seeking "fall" migrants. This trip will  
likely emphasize primarily either sites near the Connecticut River or  
sites in the vicinity of Tucker Hill Road in Norwich. A decision on  
which areas are to be covered is to be made closer to the time of this  
bird walk and will be based on updated reports from those areas.
