Vermont County Birding Quest for 2011 is to hold a bird walk from 8:00
to 10:30 AM on Sunday October 30, 2011, at Lake Runnemede/Paradise
Park in Windsor, VT (road and carpooling instructions below). Chris
Rimmer and George Clark are to lead. This walk is free and open to the
public. Children accompanied by an adult are welcome. Participants
should be prepared to walk as much as two miles over uneven terrain.
Bring binoculars and scopes if available.
We'll be seeking all kinds of birds including migrant waterbirds and
possible winter finches. This walk will be canceled in case of steady
precipitation.
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.
