From 7:30 to 10:30 AM on Saturday August 24, 2013, a Windsor County
2013 Birding Quest bird walk is to be held in Windsor, VT, starting at
Lake Runnemede and possibly continuing to a second site in Windsor if
time allows. Chris Rimmer and George Clark are to lead. With fall land
bird migration underway, we'll be especially seeking migrant birds of
all kinds. This walk is free and open to the public. Bring binoculars
and scopes if available. Participants should be prepared to walk as
much as a mile over fairly level but uneven terrain. In case of
continuous heavy rain or thundershowers, the walk is to be postponed
until the following morning.
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 7:30 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 7:00 AM that morning.
