In the ornithological equivalent of baseball's opening day, the Mascoma Chapter hosted its first birding tour of the season sponsored in conjunction with the VT Center for Ecostudies. Sixteen birders, eager to get out in the field despite winter's lingering grip, recorded a total of 23 species over a three hour period beginning at 8:00 a.m. and traveling south from the Wilder Dam to the end of Connecticut River Rd. opposite the Lebanon landfill.
Along the way were seen six bald eagles, three red-tailed hawks and one ring-billed gull, but the morning's consensus best record was of the four red-winged blackbirds seen at the end of Connecticut River Road. They even did a few trilling calls much to the party's delight. Spring will not be denied.

Thanks to George Clark and Chris Rimmer for leading.
