On Saturday June 22, 2013, a bird walk in the Windsor County 2013  
Birding Quest series is to be held starting at 7:15 AM at the Windsor  
State Farms Corrections property. Spencer Hardy and George Clark are  
to lead. We'll be looking for birds of all kinds including some which  
have at times been found in that area but which are often scarce  
elsewhere in Windsor County. Examples of such birds include snipe,  
both cuckoo species, Brown Thrashers, Blue-winged and Golden-winged  
Warblers and their hybrids, Eastern Towhees, and Field Sparrows.

This bird walk is free and open to the public. Bring binoculars if  
available. Be prepared to walk as much as 2 miles over uneven ground  
but without steep hills. Insect repellent and drinking water might be  
useful.

We'll meet at 7:15 AM in the pull-off by the small red outbuilding  
along Marton Road just north of State Farm Road and look for birds  
until around 9:45 AM.

Those wishing to carpool from towns to the north should meet at 6:30  
AM in the Ledyard Bridge commuter parking lot off River Road in  
Norwich. We plan to return to Norwich by 10:30 AM.
